Answer:

B.

Explanation:

The movement of substances(ions and molecules) against their concentration gradient is called Active transport.Since these substances are moving against whew they are already in abundance,extra energy is needed for them to move against this gradient.Therefore,ATP.,oxygen is needed by the cells undergoing this transport process to transfer substances into the cells.

It is useful for entry of substances in plants e.g glucose,and for transport of materials in intestine in man

Na-K pumps, exocytosis,endocytosis are examples of this transport process.

It is inhibited by lack of oxygen,cyanide etc.

If a mineral has a metallic shine to it,which property of a mineral is being measured? A Streak/B Cleavage/ C Color/D Luster
soldier1979 [14.2K]

The right option is; D Luster

If a mineral has a metallic shine to it, the luster of the mineral is being measured.

Luster is the property of a mineral which describes how the mineral reflects light, and also the dullness or brightness of the mineral. Luster is grouped into two which are; metallic and non-metallic. Minerals with a metallic luster are reflective and opaque. An example is pyrite. Non-metallic luster are also classified into groups based on how much light is reflected. The groups include pearly, dull, waxy, resinous, silky, and vitreous luster.

Which statement best describes the evolutionary significance of mutualism?
krok68 [10]

Answer:

C) Interaction increases the survival and reproductive rates of mutualistic species.

Explanation:

A) Mutualism offer more biodiversity to a community.

    Biodiversity is the different species living in one environment. Since mutualism is only involving two species, it wouldn't increase the biodiversity of one ecosystem, making it incorrect.

B) Individuals partaking in a mutualistic relationship relationship are more resistant to parasites.

    Mutualism is only benefiting two species, not their immunity to diseases and parasites. These two have no correlation with each other, making it incorrect.

D) Mutualistic interaction lessens competition in communities where it is present.

    Since mutualism is only benefiting two species, they have no correlation since the relationship doesn't affect the different species in the environment.

E) Mutualistic relationships allow organisms to synthesize and use energy more efficiently.

    Although there could be some relationships involving energy transfer between the species, that would sound more like commensalism or even paratsitism if you think about it. However, it is very uncommon and usually energy has no relationship with species relationships, making it incorrect.

Hope this helps! My deepest apologies if I got in incorrect!
