Radial fractures are what happen first when a pane of glass is struck.

The correct answer is radial fractures.  

Glass bends in reaction to any force, which is imparted on anyone on its surfaces; when the elasticity limit of a glass is reached, the glass fractures. The infiltration of a general window glass by a projectile, whether it is a stone or a bullet, generates a familiar pattern of fracture in which cracks both encircle the hole and radiate outward.  

The radiating lines are suitably called radial fractures, and the circular lines are known as concentric fractures. A radial fracture refers to a crack in a glass, which elongates externally like the spoke of a wheel from the point at which the glass was struck.

Not sure if I'm correct but my best guess is the cell membrane seeing as it surrounds the cell itself and is responsible for allowing certain molecules to diffuse in or out of the cell. Good Luck! :)

Which of the following is true of active transport?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

D. Molecules called pumps function to control active transport.

Explanation:

Active transport is one of the two types of transport (the other being passive transport). It is the type of transport in which substances move against their concentration gradient i.e. from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. Hence, due to this, energy input in form of ATP is required by the cell.

However, the process of active transport makes use of certain molecules called PUMPS to control it. The pumps moves ions/molecules against their concentration gradient. An example is the sodium-pottasium pump which moves sodium ions from a region of low conc. to a region of high conc.
