Answer:

Energy (in the form of ATP)

Explanation:

The main difference between active transport and passive transport is that active transport needs the energy to work. Active transport also moves molecules against the concentration gradient, kinda like a pump. This pump will need energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to keep it working. Adenosine triphosphate will be broken down into adenosine diphosphate (ADP). The energy from the breakdown reaction will be used by the pump.

What organelle wouldn’t have a job if the smooth and rough ER didn’t work?

ruslelena [56]

Answer: The Golgi apparatus.

Explanation: I believe it is the Golgi apparatus as the Rough ER and Smooth ER create proteins and sort them in to piles before sending to the Golgi apparatus to deliver.

The Smooth ER and Rough ER are like the suppliers while the Golgi apparatus is like the transporter.

Remember: Proteins have many functions and are needed severely to perform those actions that without the Golgi apparatus, those proteins wouldn’t be able to be transported.

miv72 [106K]

The mitotic division of microspores belongs to the gametophyte stage of the life cycle of the pollen.

<h3>What are pollen grains?</h3>

Pollen are very important in the propagation of a flower. They need to be involved in the process of fertilization. As a matter of fact pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma of a flower.

Now we can see that there are various stages in the development of pollen. The mitotic division of microspores belongs to the gametophyte stage of the life cycle of the pollen.
