Passive transport involves movement of substances

Biology

Answer:

Passive transport involves movement of substances from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration.

Explanation:

Passive transport involves the passage of substances through a semi-permeable membrane, as occurs with transport at the level of cell membranes.

Generally, passive transport occurs with the <u>movement of compounds from the space with the highest concentration of a specific substance to the space with the lowest concentration of the same substance</u>, following the so-called concentration gradient. Theoretically, the gradient tends to disappear when the concentrations of substances have balanced out.

Regarding other options:

<em>     A. </em><u><em>From areas of lower concentration to areas of higher concentration</em></u><em>.  It is a feature of active transport.</em>

<em>      C. </em><u><em>From areas in which the concentration has reached a balance</em></u><em>.  There is no passive transport</em>

<em>      D. </em><u><em>From areas of differing concentrations with the use of cellular energy</em></u><em>.  Energy use involves active transport.</em>

Answer:

The correct option is D: Faults form because crust gets cracked when plates move apart along divergent plate boundaries.

Explanation:

Options A and B are incorrect because even though tectonic plates are constantly moving and crashing against each other at convergent plate boundaries, it is not responsible for causing an earthquake. Option C is also incorrect in the context of the question statement merely colliding does not result in an earthquake.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
