Why do embryos from organisms like frogs and chickens contain so much yolk when human embryos contain none?

1 answer:

7 0

Yolks are an important component of the eggs since they nourish the young embryo as it develops into a young juvenile organism. The yolk is important especially when the embryo is not attached to its parent (in oviparous organisms) like in humans. Humans embryos are able to get their nourishment directly from their mothers in the womb (through the placenta) hence don’t require a yolk (viviparous organisms).

What is a major difference between facilitated diffusion and active transport?

solniwko [45]

Answer:

The correct option is A) Active transport moves substances against the concentration gradient.

Explanation:

Active transport can be described as the movement of molecules against a concentration gradient i.e from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration.

Facilitated diffusion can be described as the movement of molecules guided by other molecules such as integral proteins. These kinds of movements are a type of passive transport as the molecules move along the concentration gradient from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
