Answer:

It helps them survive

Explanation:

Mimicry is when animals have forms and coloration that makes them blend in with their environment, which helps them to escape from their predators or approach their prey undetected and thus mimicry helps organisms survive. An example is the stick insect. They look like real sticks in shape and color and even move in a way that resembles a stick movement by the wind. This way they may escape the sharp vision of many insectivorous birds.

This is the stage of meiosis or mitosis when chromosomes separate to the opposite ends of the cell.

That would be the third (or second, if you don’t count prophase) step of mitosis, anaphase.

Mammals have two traits that set them apart from all other animal.

Sav [38]

One thing that separates us from the other animal classifications is that we have hair, everywhere! :D The next major difference is the fact that mammals don't lay egg's, we give birth to live creatures. Those are the 2 biggest things that distinguish us from them.

Hope I helped. :)

How do the particles move in active transport?

ella [17]

In active transport particles move by making use of energy in the form of ATP.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Unlike in passive transport particles have to move against the concentration gradient in active transport. Thus particles require energy to do so and this energy is in the form of ATP. Osmosis and simple diffusion are examples of passive transport where substances move from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.

This movement is down the concentration gradient. In active transport particles move from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration which is against the concentration gradient. Active transport is of two types.

In the first type called primary active transport energy is directly used in the form of ATP. In the second type called secondary active transport an electrochemical gradient created by ATP is used to facilitate the transport.
