The transit method requires watching the light output of a star over long periods of time. A transit occurs when the planet crosses in front of its star from earths point of view. Since there is a small object (the planet) now blocking some of the star, it appears to dim a little bit for a while until the planet passes. If we are in a position where that occurs regularly (most paths of planets do not happen to be on the line of sight between earth and their star) we can deduce the period of orbit. From the amount of dimming and the period you can estimate the mass
The correct answer is A.
The cell membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins. Sometimes molecules are just too big to easily flow across the plasma membrane or dissolve in the water so that they can be filtered through the cell membrane. In these cases , the cells must put out a little energy to help get molecules in and out of the cell.
The proteins embedded in the plasma membrane form channels through which other molecules can pass. Some proteins act as carriers, that is they are 'paid" in energy to let a molecule attach to itself and then transport that molecule inside the cell. This is called active transport.
