Describe the different examples of active and passive transport

Biology

Hi there!

Active Transport - Through the use of ATP, active transport pumps molecules against a particular concentration gradient. Active transport occurs from a low concentration solute and moves to a high concentration of solute. Two examples of active transport would be endocytosis and exocytosis.

Passive Transport - Active transport is the movement of molecules down a gradient. Unlike passive transport, it goes from high to low concentration and does not require energy (such as cellular energy). Some examples would be osmosis and diffusion.

I hope this helped!

Co = Ordering cost

D = annual demand

Ch = Annual unit holding cost

Economic quantity is the order quantity which minimizes sum of annual cost of ordering and annual inventory holding cost  so to minimize the overall cost of the inventory.

ANSWER : d) to minimize the sum of setup cost and holding cost that is to calculate the optimum safety stock.
