How is energy expended in active transport​

Biology
1 answer:
blondinia [14]3 years ago

Hello!

We know that the movement of molecules from an area of low concentration to high concentration. This movement is <em>against</em> the concentration gradient and thus requires the use of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to successfully move. This process is the opposite of diffusion, which requires the use of no energy because it moves materials <em>DOWN</em> the concentration gradient.

I hope I helped! Feel free to leave a comment down below if you need any more assistance, even if it is not with this question. :)

What would happen if there was no condensation stage in the water cycle
BigorU [14]

Condensation is the process by which water vapor is changed back into liquid water. Condensation is very important to our weather and climate because it is what is responsible for cloud formation.

Without clouds, we would not get to the third phase, called precipitation, which we will talk about in a minute. Clouds form when water vapor condenses around small particles, like bits of dust or smoke in the air. Depending on the size of the drops, these particles may or may not be visible. Even on a clear, cloudless day, water vapor is always present in the atmosphere, but it does vary in amounts. We know it is present on a very humid day; it often feels like we need to swim through the air! Fog is condensation near the ground.

<span>Fog forms when moist warmer air comes in contact with cooler air near the surface. Just like when the bathroom mirror gets all foggy during a shower because of condensation, fog also forms because of this warm air contacting a cooler air mass. The fog forms drops in the air rather than on the surface of your mirror.</span>Clouds will be useless since they will not carry and drop water.

Hatshy [7]
According to the activation-synthesis theory of dreaming, the source of a dream is neuronal firing in the lower brain stem. It is also known as the medulla oblongata or just medulla. It is essential in processes like blood pressure and heart rate. Also, it is responsible in a number of reflexes in the body or the involuntary actions like coughing, sneezing and vomiting. It is said to contain cells that would turn REM on and off. From recent research, it is the part of the brain that is the origin of the electrical impulses where dreams are results. It is connected to other parts of the brain which controls memory, movement, hearing and vision.
