Biology

Answer:

D (proteins moving ions from low to high concentration across a cell membrane)

Explanation:

Active transport, by definition, is a type of substance transport that requires energy (typically in the form of ATP). Having said that, we can immediately eliminate B (aka water diffusion throughout the cytoplasm of a cell), as diffusion (osmosis in this case) does not require any expenditure/spending of energy. Next, we can cancel A and C because although they do require energy, there is no transport involved. Thus that leaves us with D. D is not only the answer because of the process of elimination but also b/c the ans. choice says that ions are being moved from low to high concentration, which is against the concentration gradient and thus requires energy. Hope you found this helpful! :)

Which can adapt to changes A. alleles B. population C. offspring D. individuals
Delvig [45]
I would say individuals can adapt to change as this agrees with the theory of natural selection that in any species there are varieties and these can  consist of individuals that are better adapted to the environmental conditions so they will thrive and propogate themselves and can result in a new species.

examine the diagram below, explain the path a newly formed polypeptide leaving a ribosome may take as it is modified or packaged
iren [92.7K]

After translation of the polypeptide in the ribosome, the polypeptide enters the cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Here, the folding of the polypeptide begins with the aid of chaperons proteins. At the end of the RER, vesicles with the completely folded protein bud off and enters the Golgi apparatus where the proteins are transported to its destination.
