Explanation:

(3) active transport

The molecules would be moving against their concentration gradient from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration.

While cells facilitate the transport of molecules via movement across the cell membrane, there many different mechanisms. These include passive diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and passive transport. However some very large molecules require specialized type of active transport, which requires energy in the form of ATP, in order to move substances across the membrane against their concentration gradient.

Active transport is a mediated process that requires an energy input and the use of specialized membrane proteins to move against the concentration gradient. These proteins require energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate or ATP in order to facilitate necessary conformational changes to the large protein molecules to alter the spatial location of the molecule. For instance, with Na+, K+ pumps in cell membranes.

Answer:

Aerobic metabolism of amino acid requires deamination

Explanation:

Living system can be defined as the internal systems of organisms and how materials circulate within organisms.

Generally, these living systems are self-organized life forms and are known to be very much interactive with their surroundings or environment. Also, living systems are dependent on the flow of information, matter and energy at various levels.

Some examples of living systems in organisms are respiratory system, nervous system, digestive system, and circulatory system.

Additionally, living systems comprises of the following components; cells, organs, muscle, tissues, blood, etc., which are typically used for carrying out various bodily functions such as respiration, digestion, metabolism, etc.

Metabolism can be defined as a set of chemical processes carried out by a living organism such as humans, plants and animals, in order to sustain life.

Aerobic (oxygen-using) metabolism can be defined as a biological process that typically involves the extraction of energy from any carbohydrate source such as amino acids, fatty acids, etc.

Basically, an aerobic metabolism of amino acid is a process that requires deamination.

Generally, proteins comprises of amino acids and it is responsible for maintaining the proper functioning of the body system.

Transamination can be defined as a biochemical process which typically involves the removal of amino groups from amino acids and transferring them to a ketoacid (amino acid without an amine group), so as to form new amino acids.

Basically, transamination is a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction that is responsible for the deamination of amino acids.
