<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Active transport uses energy and passive transport does not

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <u>Passive transport occurs when materials move across cell membranes without using cell energy (ATP). </u> Examples of passive transport include; diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis. It moves small molecules like water, oxygen, carbon dioxide and glucose.
  • <em><u>Active transport on the other hand involves the movement of materials across the cell membrane that requires the use of cell energy (ATP)</u></em>.
  • In other words the difference between active transport and passive transport is that passive Transport moves ions from high concentration to low, using no metabolic energy while active Transport moves ions from low concentration to high, using metabolic energy in the form of ATP.

In other organs, however, such as the pancreas and the heart, stem cells only divide under special conditions.</span>

What are the possible genotypes of the parents of a male child who is colorblind?
viva [34]
Color Blindness is an X-linked trait. This explains why males are much more likely to have it than females. Offspring inherit Color Blindness from their mother, because the father only contributes the Y chromosome. A female can only have the disorder if her father has it and her mother either has it or is a carrier
