Bioremediation is the process of using living organisms to detoxify a location. Microbes are used to clean up contaminated soil and groundwater. The organisms that are used in this process are: bacteria, fungi, archaea. For example, b<span>acteria are introduced to the area of the spill where they break down the hydrocarbons of the oil into carbon dioxide;</span>..
Answer:
Glucose entering the intestines from the villus.This is by active transport.The latter is defined as the movement of molecules and solutes from the region of lower concentration to the region of higher concentration against the concentration gradient.
Explanation:
All the above options depends on the diffusion gradients from one higher region to another.e.g oxygen passing from high concentration from outside to lower concentration in blood stream,like wise Co2 from higher concentration from inside to outside,with passive diffusion lipids and water enter the small intestine(note amino acid and glucose,and fructose are different).
Active transport( through sodium dependent transporter) transports glucose to the intestine from the villus.This is movements against concentration gradient because,glucose molecule are concentrated in intestine,and needed by the cells, in the body.Therefore they must be transported as a fast rate inn the blood .
However the absorption by the villi is very slow,therefore active transport is needed to move these against the concentration gradient into the intestine.And finally the blood.
If this were to be moved by passive diffusion,the high concentration in the intestine will force this back into the villi
Therefore extra energy is needed by active transport for the glucose molecules to enter the intestine from the villus.
Answer:
As chlorine has 7 valence electrons, it tends to form bonds to gain one electron (to get a full valence shell of 8).On the other hand, potassium has one valence electron, so it tends to lose this electron to other atoms (and
become a cation)
Answer& Explanation:
Angiosperm is more advanced due to the mechanism of protection it has since developed as opposed to its predecessor, gymnosperm. Angiosperms could be deemed the inventors of animal-mediated pollination or dispersal, whereas gymnosperms mostly depend on wind-mediated pollination (which is far more of a gamble than animal mediated).
1) Angiosperms seeds are enclosed in fruits, which increases the chances of dispersal by either wind, water, or animals. Animals can eat the fruit and disperse the seeds via feces or by brushing the fruit off of their fur coats new areas of the terrain.
2)The development of flowers. Flowers are especially important because depending on the flower it can attract a set species of animals in order for pollination to occur. That species of animal could only focus on those few flowers and would allow the female part of the flower to receive pollen (produced by the male part of the flower) from all over the place. This theory is also applicable to animal mediated fruit dispersal.
