Osmosis and diffusion are both examples of passive transport, neither of which requires energy to cross the cell membrane from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. Active transport is the process of moving molecules and ions from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration. Active transport requires energy in the form of ATP.
The 5 characteristics of a mineral are: solid, inorganic, naturally occurring, definite chemical composition, and definite crystalline structure.
Answer:
A. Smell
Explanation:
Mechanoreceptors are known to primary sensory structures. Their function is to provide information about the mechanical characteristics of the internal and external environments. These mechanoreceptors usually detect stimuli such as pressure, vibration, sound and touch from the internal and external environments.
Smell does not rely on mechanoreceptors but rather rely on olfactory receptors.
Explanation:
Each section of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum has characteristic energy levels, wavelengths, and frequencies associated with its photons. Gamma rays have the highest energies, the shortest wavelengths, and the highest frequencies. Radio waves, on the other hand, have the lowest energies, longest wavelengths, and lowest frequencies of any type of EM radiation. In order from highest to lowest energy, the sections of the EM spectrum are named: gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light, infrared radiation, and radio waves. Microwaves (like the ones used in microwave ovens) are a subsection of the radio wave segment of the EM spectrum.
