A student is investigating cellular transport. She fills a beaker with 250 ml of water. She places 10 drops of red food coloring

into the beaker of water and makes an observation immediately, after 5 minutes, and after 30 minutes. Her set up is shown below. image The student observes that the molecules of red dye move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration until equilibrium is reached. Which best describes the type of cellular transport that the student is investigating? A The student is investigating the passive transport of diffusion. B The student is investigating the active transport of osmosis. C The student is investigating the active transport of diffusion. D The student is investigating the passive transport of osmosis.

Answer:

The correct answer is A The student is investigating the passive transport of diffusion.

Explanation:

Diffusion is a type of transport process which helps in the transport of small molecules and gases towards their concentration gradient that"s means from region of high concentration to the low concentration region untill equilibrium is reached.

       In this question the 10 drops are red coloured food particles that are placed into the beaker, diffuses to all the regions of the beaker untill the concentration of that red colored food particle become same in all the regions to which red colored food particle diffuse.

Who are the producers in this food web? Check all that apply *
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

1.Sea urchins are powerful primary consumers in the kelp forest.  2. Kelp is the producer in the kelp forests. 3. Bat star are omnivores and scavengers and at the end of the food web are tertiary consumers. 4   Phytoplankton are primary producers. 5. Zooplankton is a primary consumer in the food web.

Explanation:

1.Sea urchins are powerful primary consumer in the kelp forest because they are needed to keep the kelp anchored to the bottom of the ocean and algae . 2. Kelp is the producer in the kelp forest kelp forests provides an ecosystem for many organisms from the sea floor to the surface and provides shelter for many forms of sea life.  3. As a scavenger bat star is important in the ecosystem helping clean dead animals,  and algae from the seafloor, the bat star keeps the seafloor healthy. 4. Phytoplankton are accounted for about half of photosynthesis on the planet, which makes them an important producer of oxygen, and serves as food source for smaller sea organisms, they consume carbon dioxide that would otherwise dissolve in the sea water making it more acidic. 5. Zooplankton are the animal like primary consumers of plankton community they also provide the base for the entire food web also if plankton disappeared it would increase the levels of carbon in our air.
