How do the particles move in active transport?

Biology
1 answer:
ella [17]3 years ago
5 0

In active transport particles move by making use of energy in the form of ATP.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Unlike in passive transport particles have to move against the concentration gradient in active transport. Thus particles require energy to do so and this energy is in the form of ATP. Osmosis and simple diffusion are examples of passive transport where substances move from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.

This movement is down the concentration gradient. In active transport particles move from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration which is against the concentration gradient. Active transport is of two types.

In the first type called primary active transport energy is directly used in the form of ATP. In the second type called secondary active transport an electrochemical gradient created by ATP is used to facilitate the transport.

Cellular respiration. Is essentially the reverse of photosynthesis
Daniel [21]
In terms of the net reactants and products, yes, cellular respiration is the reverse of photosynthesis. 
Cellular respiration: Glucose and oxygen are used to make ATP, carbon dioxide, and water.
Photosynthesis: ATP, carbon dioxide, and water are used to make glucose and oxygen.

However, their pathways are NOT the reverse of each other. The enzymes involved are vastly different for each, so only the net reaction is the "reverse."

vaieri [72.5K]
Well for one thing water wouldn't collect in drops. It also would affect pretty much everything that lives in or on water. For example there are kinds of bugs that use the surface of the water to stand on and lots of other organisms that use surface tension for their own benefits. Hope this helps!

Fibrosis patient may suffer from the blood clotting when exposed to air

c- the blood clotting when exposed to air

<u>Explanation:</u>

Fibrosis is the development of excess fibrous connective tissue in an organ or in a reparative or responsive procedure. It is a sort of interstitial lung illness. It is brought about by lung tissue getting thick and solid and in the long run framing scar tissue inside the lungs.

Platelets ordinarily start the thickening procedure when they'reexposed to the air, for example, in a cut or wound. Blood clumps structure when certain pieces of your blood thicken, shaping a semisolid mass. This procedure might be activated by damage or it can here and there happen inside veins that don't have conspicuous damage.

In people, cell parts make up roughly 45 percent of the blood and the fluid plasma 55 percent. Be that as it may, some of the time blood clumps structure too effectively or doesn't break down appropriately and travel through the body restricting or blocking bloodstream. This is called over the top blood thickening or hypercoagulation and can be perilous and prompts Fibrosis.
