Answer:
parasitism,
Explanation:
parasitism, relationship between two species of plants or animals in which one benefits at the expense of the other, sometimes without killing the host organism.
Planet earth is the only known region of the universe to host life and so the basic criteria for life is based on observations made here. For an entity to be considered a living organism it must contain DNA or some other means of storing genetic information. The second criteria is that it must have some way of extracting nutrients from its surroundings. The organism must be able to respond to environmental stimulus and last but not least it must be able to reproduce.
Answer:
B.Active transport, because energy is being used to move molecules against the concentration gradient
Explanation:
Substances move in and out of living cells through various transport means. Some substances move passively (without energy) while others move actively (with energy). Active transport of substances involves the movement of molecules against the concentration gradient.
Active transport moves against concentration gradient in the sense that the movement occurs from a region which is less concentrated to one which is more concentrated, hence, energy input in form of ATP is required for such transport to occur. This is the case of the cellular transport in the diagram. Therefore, it is an ACTIVE TRANSPORT because energy input (ATP) is required.
Note, Osmosis and facilitated diffusion are types of passive transport that requires no energy to occur.
Answer:
Explanation: At the molecular level, the universal genetic code and homologous molecules provide evidence of common descent.
