Answer:
b. diffusion and osmosis across semi-permeable membranes
Explanation:
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a high energy carrying molecule in the system of living organisms. It posseses the ability to store and release energy for use by organisms during biochemical activities. However, some processes do not require ATP to occur and are called PASSIVE TRANSPORT while those that require energy (ATP) are called ACTIVE TRANSPORT.
In the above options, the processes listed as follows require ATP to occur:
- The active transport of glucose from the small intestine to the blood
- The movement of the flagella of sperm for motility
- Exocytosis of waste substances across a semi-permeable membrane
However, the diffusion and osmosis across semi-permeable membranes, which is a passive transport does not require ATP.
Its called the duodenum.

Restriction enzymes and or restriction endonucleases are involved at recognizing specific sequence of nucleotides and cutting or splicing them at appropriate regions to produce fragments that can either be sticky ends or blunt ends depending on where they cut and the nature of nucleotides involved within the fragments. They play an important role in genetic engineering, as geneticists can use them for placing into extra chromosomal information and or content of plasmids in certain bacteria, from other sources, for instance antibiotics, grow and or produce many individual colonies of bacteria, isolate them and one would have many sequences for instance that can code for an antibiotic that can be extracted and used further. Assuming the bacteria's plasmid can take in that sequence.
Assuming this is multiple choice, the answer would be "niche". An organism's niche is where that certain organism fits into an ecosystem, or what their part to play is.
Exaptation
Explanation:
In this example, the lateral extensions that developed were meant for thermoregulation.
But these became sufficiently large to support gliding through the air and later on were used for flight.
Thus the structure assumed a function for which it was not meant and its original function shifted to a completely different dimension giving rise to modern insect wings. So we can say that this is an example of Exaptation.
