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.

Fossils of the same type and same age have been found on different continents. If we were to put South America and Africa togeth

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

there have been several cases where fossils of the same type and age where found on different continents.

For example:-

"The Mesosaurus" which is an extinct genus of reptile from the Early Permian and was found in the continents of southern Africa and South America.

This seems to point to the fact that once all the continents were togethe, and they are now separate due to the Continental drift. ( the theory that states that all the continents were earlier one big form of landmass, but they have moved away from each other thus appearing to have "drifted" across the ocean bed."

But again these are all just theories and speculations but findings like these strengthen them and make people believe in these theories. They haven't exactly been confirmed. Like the evolution theory.

i hope this helps.

have a great day ahead :)

natali 33 [55]

Those plants which are adapted to grow on land with its roots in soil are known as terrestrial plants like trees, shrubs, flowers and grasses. Some example of terrestrial plants are China rose (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis), Orange (citrus reticulata).

timama [110]

Answer:

It will swell

Explanation:

Since it is only permeable to water, the cell will try and reach homeostasis with it surroundings (it will take in water to decrease the concentration of salt in the cell).
