A type of cellular transport is shown. Which description best identifies this type of cellular transport? Your answer: A.Osmosis

, because energy is being used to move molecules with the concentration gradient. B.Active transport, because energy is being used to move molecules against the concentration gradient. C.Facilitated diffusion, because energy is being used to move molecules with the concentration gradient.

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.

" A single gene produces two different proteins, utilizing different exons. Produce the explanation"
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Exons can be shuffled  independently known as exon shuffling. It can be done in various ways, leading to infinite number of combinations to discover new and meaningful coding sequences hence various proteins. Due to exon shuffling, evolution need not  occur only by the slow accumulation of point mutations but  might also move ahead by “quantum leaps” with new proteins  appearing in a single generation.

kirill [66]
The snakehead could unreservedly eat little fish and scavangers, so that would evacuate/diminish the predator for zooplankton and phytoplankton. So zooplankton and phytoplankton populace would increment while little fish and scavanger populace would diminish. Presently if little fish and shellfish populace diminishes, their predators would have bring down sustenance, so vast fish pop. would diminish. On the off chance that vast fish pop. diminishes, their predators will have less nourishment thus the number of inhabitants in well evolved creatures will somewhat drop, however not by much, since they can feast upon zooplankton. 
So at last, just the phytoplankton populace would increment while everything else diminishes.
