Answer:

The correct answer is A. active transport

Explanation:

There are two types of transport which helps in the transport of molecules across the cell membrane. These are active transport and passive transport. In passive transport, the molecules move across the membrane without any energy expenditure and down their concentration gradient.

In active transport, molecules move against their concentration gradient with the help of ATP so in active transport, molecules can be present in high concentration outside or inside the cell.

Sodium is an ion that moves by active transport in and out of the cell with the help of sodium-potassium pump so it's so the correct answer is A.

Describe the intracellular events that occur when a population of wild type ( lac+) escherichia coliis transferred from a medium
denis23 [38]

The lac repressor protein is bound to the operator region of the lac operon when there is no lactose in the medium. When introduced in lactose, it binds to an allosteric site on the repressor causing its to change conformation and release from the operator. This allows the polymerase that is bound to the promoter region to proceed transcription of the lac operon genes (LacZ, Lac A, and Lac Y). Translation of these genes forms enzymes that enable the organism to break down lactose for energy.
