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.

Archy [21]

Answer:

Frogs have some important internal and external structures  that helps them to survive, grow and reproduce. Frog have almost similar internal anatomy to humans.

Frogs have the ability to respire through both lungs and skin. Skin is the external structure that helps them to respire in aquatic ecology.The skins helps to dissolves oxygen from the air and water and releases carbon-dioxide. Skin helps frogs to respire under water but if water do not have enough oxygen, frogs will drown.

<em>An internal structure called liver is present in frog same as human beings. </em> The liver releases chemical called bile that are utilized in digestion of fat and then emptied into the small intestine.

Hence, skin and liver are important for the survival of frog.
