Answer:
b. diffusion and osmosis across semi-permeable membranes
Explanation:
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a high energy carrying molecule in the system of living organisms. It posseses the ability to store and release energy for use by organisms during biochemical activities. However, some processes do not require ATP to occur and are called PASSIVE TRANSPORT while those that require energy (ATP) are called ACTIVE TRANSPORT.
In the above options, the processes listed as follows require ATP to occur:
- The active transport of glucose from the small intestine to the blood
- The movement of the flagella of sperm for motility
- Exocytosis of waste substances across a semi-permeable membrane
However, the diffusion and osmosis across semi-permeable membranes, which is a passive transport does not require ATP.
<span>Homologous chromosomes are chromosomes of equal length, size, and of corresponding genetic material. If, during meiosis, these chromosomes divide improperly, when they are re-combined with the opposite sex's portion, they will combine improperly. The unequal distribution of genetic material in reproduction will eventually create what's call an aneuploid germ cell: this germ cell results in dead zygotes, which leads to a miscarriage or spontaneous abortion in about 25 percent of all conceptions. So we see that it is imperative the genetic material of these chromosomes be exactly where it is supposed to be: so that it can combine perfectly with its compliment.</span>
Destruction of coral reefs would cause an imbalance in the ecosystem. Some species could be driven to extinction.
Coral reefs are the base of the most diverse marine ecosystem in the world. They are often referred to as the ‘rainforest’ of the oceans and seas. They provide shelter for cnidarians, sponges, crustaceans, and etcetera and provide hiding grounds from predators.
