There are 2 types of transport mechanisms that involve the movement of materials across the cellular membrane:
1. Passive Transport Mechanisms which is the movement of materials that does not require energy. Instead the movement relies on the permeability of the cell. Under this are three kinds of passive transport mechanisms:
a. Simple Diffusion:
- the movement of materials from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration. No external energy is necessary for the movement. The materials supply the energy themselves.
b. Facilitated Diffusion:
- This differs from simple diffusion because the movement is facilitated by proteins that make up the structure of the membrane. The proteins include channel proteins that allow ions and smaller molecules to cross the membrane. The other protein are the carrier proteins, which bind to materials like sugar molecules and move it across the membrane.
c. Osmosis:
- This is the diffusion of water across the membrane. Osmosis moves water from regions where there are more water molecules of water per volume to regions where there are less water molecules per volume.
2. Active transport on the other hand is a movement mechanism that requires energy. It uses the energy to send materials against the direction it is coming from through simple diffusion. This mechanism is used in a way to keep unwanted ions or other materials out of the cell.
G0 phase cells
The mitotic cycle of somatic, or body, cells is responsible for the production of copies of those cells. The mitotic cycle has different phases, each of which involves a different set of physiological changes to the cell. The G0 phase is described as the resting phase of a cell, where no activities relating to cell division are taking place. G0 phase cells remain in this phase their entire lives, so they do not divide. Another example of such a cell is found in red blood cells.
Benthos describe organisms that live on or in the ocean floor.
Answer:
This person can be described as an environmentalist.
Explanation:
An environmentalist is a person who has adopted environmentalism as a philosophy that makes this person work and manages to direct their activities towards the preservation of the environment and sustainable development. These people seek to teach others to preserve the environment and seek to defend it through politics, economics and any other social factor that can help to achieve this goal.
The person presented in the question above is an environmentalist, because, as we can see, this person is available to give a lecture on environmental preservation, interacts with environmental activist groups and seeks political support to address issues on climate issues, sustainability and biodiversity .
