Answer:

Sedimentary rock

Explanation:

The Coquina rock is a sedimentary rock that is comprised of broken fragments of the shells of ancient trilobites, invertebrates, and brachiopods. When the sediments were deposited, and shells were also added on it, they have undergone compaction and lithification, as a result of which these rocks were formed. They are generally classified as the soft limestone rocks, that are typically formed in the marine and lacustrine environments, where the flow energy is very high.

Thus, Coquina is a sedimentary limestone rock.

Which of these processes does not require the cell to use energy A cell division b protein synthesis c DNA replication D diffusi
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

D diffusion across a membrane

Explanation:

Based on whether or not energy input is required, there are two types of processes viz: passive and active. Passive processes are those that do not require energy input in form of ATP while active processes require energy input to occur.

An example of passive process is DIFFUSION, which is the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration across a membrane. Diffusion is passive i.e does not require energy, because movement occurs down a concentration gradient.

Other processes in the options like cell division, DNA replication and protein synthesis all require energy input to occur.
