The process that is characterized by the movement of particles from the area of high concentration to the area of low concentration across the plasma membrane without the use of energy is called PASSIVE TRANSPORT.
When it comes to movement of particles into cells, there are two basic types of transportation, these are active and passive transport. The active transport system needs energy in form of ATP to move the particles across the cell membranes while the passive transport system does not require energy. The rate at which active transport occur usually depend on the permeability of the cell membrane. There are four examples of passive transport, these are: simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis and filteration.  <span />

<span>The correct answer is option C. The passive transport is a process which is characterized by the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across the plasma membrane without the use of energy because, its particle move by themselves due to entropy. Whereas, active transport requires energy to move form low concentration to higher concentration..</span>

Which statement is true of natural populations?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Population is a collection of individuals of a species living in a defined area

Explanation:

Population:This is a collection of individuals of the same species occupying the same space and able to interbreed freely with one another when individuals of different sexes are brought together.

A species of animals may comprise a single cohesive population or may contain many geographical distinct populations.

Example:A population of Agama lizards in a Campus located in China.The whole human race, Homo sapiens comprising the black, Mongolian,red and white is a population.A population of <u>Cercopithe</u><u>c</u><u>us</u> <u>erythrogaster</u><u> </u>(Monkeys).

Nadusha1986 [10]

Griffith's experiment worked with two types of pneumococcal bacteria (a rough type and a smooth type) and identified that a "transforming principle"  could transform them from one type to another.

At first, bacteriologists suspected the transforming factor was a protein. The "transforming principle" could be precipitated with alcohol, which showed that it was not a carbohydrate. But Avery and McCarty observed that proteases (enzymes that degrade proteins) did not destroy the transforming principle. Neither did lipases (enzymes that digest lipids). Later they found that the transforming substance was made of nucleic acids but ribonuclease (which digests RNA) did not inactivate the substance. By this method, they were able to obtain small amounts of highly purified transforming principle, which they could then analyze through other tests to determine its identity, which corresponded to DNA.

jolli1 [7]
The primary consumers like rabbits or other small animals that are normally eaten by the secondary consumers (snakes) would over populate and eat all of the producers (plants) and the plants would die out. This would eventually lead to the decrease of the primary consumer (rabbit/small animals) population.
