Answer:

The correct answer is both involve moving substance across the membrane.

Explanation:

Passive transport is one of the most important membrane transport process which helps in transport of polar molecules and gases along their concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.No addition energy is required to carry out passive transport because during passive transport molecules move from high concentration region to the region of low concentration.

Active transport is a specific type of membrane transport process which helps in the passage of ions against their concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.As the ions are moving against their concentration gradient additional chemical energy is required to carry out their uphill transport.

The mechanism that breaks the linkage between linked genes is

gregori [183]

Answer:

Crossing over

Explanation:

Crossing over is the process during which two chromatids of two homologous chromosomes exchange part of their genetic segments. It occurs during the pachytene stage of prophase I of meiosis I.

Linked genes are mostly inherited together and do not exhibit independent assortment. However, when linked genes are present far apart from each other on the same chromosome, crossing over can occur between them to produce recombinant chromatids. Therefore, crossing over can break the linkage and produce recombinant progeny as it occurs during the independent assortment of unlinked genes.

What type of body shape and tail shape do the triggerfish and hawkfish have? select one:

Dima020 [189]

Triggerfish and hawks fish. They have depressed body shape and their tail is diphycercal. Their tail shape gives them manoeuvrability and their body shape allows them to fit into small places on the reefs which makes them good for adaptations.
Shark fish; they have fusiform body shape and heterocercal tail shape and their good adaptation help them to be top predators and need speed to hunt down their animal.
Stingray; they have depressed body shape and diphycercal tail shape. Their good adaptation helps them to timid fish who feed and hide along the bottom.
