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.
Answer:
fertilizers
Explanation:
Plants use nitrates as a supply of nitrogen, which is needed to make proteins for healthy growth. Plants absorb nitrates in water through their roots. Nitrates are present in high levels in plant fertilisers. Without nitrates, the amount of chlorophyll in leaves reduces.
The ultimate souce of energy for the food chain is solar energy from the sun. It allows plants to convert the solar energy to chemical energy for growth. The growing plants in turn allow heterotropic animals to consume them to obtain energy of their own.
Answer:
Plant produces food material in the process of photosynthesis in the leaves. The food that is produced in the form of glucose (sugar) is transported from the leaves to other parts of the plants such as roots, stem and seeds with the help of water. When the glucose reaches to the storage part it is stored in the form of starch.
For example, in carrot and potato food is stored in roots while in sugar cane the food is stored in the stem.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
A system is at equilibrium when the rates of opposing reactions are equal.
Answer A does not show the rate of reactions, it only shows concentrations of reactants.
Answer B only shows constants, it does not show rates of reactions.
