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!

A species of beetle expresses a pigment protein as an adult but not as a juvenile. The pigment is encoded by the gene PIG. A pro
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The KID protein is responsible for the no pigmentation at the juvenile stage. When the KID protein inhibits in the adult state, the pigmentation occurs in the body. This might occur because the KID protein acts as the repressor molecule and acts as a negative regulator of PIG protein.

The KID protein is responsible for pigmentation an adult stage.  Any mutation in the KID gene might result in the loss of pigmentation in the adult. The KID gene is responsible for the binding of the KID protein and mutation in this gene can lead to the arrest of KID protein. The protein is unable to release and PIG continuously repressed in the adults.
