Answer:

a) After plunging into icy-cold water, Gary's core body temperature rapidly drops.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the process by which our bodies find and reach equilibrium, could be physical or chemical, when you get into icy-cold water, for there to be homeostasis your body should get hotter in order to keep its normal temperature, but often the body tempereature just drops because there´s not much the vody can do against that.

The best answer to the question you have presented above is letter a. The statement that is NOT an example of homeostasis is 'After plunging into icy-cold water, Gary's core body temperature rapidly drops'. This is because it should increase rather than decrease.

A type of cellular transport is shown. Which description best identifies this type of cellular transport? Your answer: A.Osmosis
madreJ [45]

Answer:

B.Active transport, because energy is being used to move molecules against the concentration gradient

Explanation:

Substances move in and out of living cells through various transport means. Some substances move passively (without energy) while others move actively (with energy). Active transport of substances involves the movement of molecules against the concentration gradient.

Active transport moves against concentration gradient in the sense that the movement occurs from a region which is less concentrated to one which is more concentrated, hence, energy input in form of ATP is required for such transport to occur. This is the case of the cellular transport in the diagram. Therefore, it is an ACTIVE TRANSPORT because energy input (ATP) is required.

Note, Osmosis and facilitated diffusion are types of passive transport that requires no energy to occur.
