Answer:
The correct option is<em> A. Active transport moves substances against the concentration gradient.</em>
Explanation:
Active transport can be described as a transport mechanism in which molecules tend to move against the concentration gradient i.e from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration. Energy is needed for this process to occur.
Facilitated diffusion can be described as a phenomenon is which molecules move along the concentration gradient i.e from a higher concentration to a lower concentration with the help of trans- membrane integral proteins
Too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere can lead to global warming
this is why plants reduce the amount of carbon dioxide through photosynthesis
Activation energy is the minimum quantity of energy that the reacting species must possess in order to undergo a specified reaction.
for example , striking a match on the side of a matchbox provides the activation energy, in the form of heat produced by friction.
The correct answer is - one-half.
In the past century, the deforestation of the rainforests in the world had been devastating, and it is estimated that approximately one half of the tropical rainforests have been destroyed.
The reason for the large scale destruction of the rainforests is mainly because of clearing space for agriculture and for spaces where the cattle can graze. Unfortunately, the people that live the regions where the tropical forests are, are not well educated as to how to manage the land, and a big problem is that the soil of the rainforests is only good for 2-3 seasons, because it spends and erodes very quickly. Because of that, people just continue to clear more and more of it, thus leaving destroyed forest and destroyed soil behind them, without taking in consideration the long term effects.
