Most bacteria rely on binary fission for propagation. Conceptually this is a simple process; a cell just needs to grow to twice its starting size and then split in two. But, to remain viable and competitive, a bacterium must divide at the right time, in the right place, and must provide each offspring with a complete copy of its essential genetic material. Bacterial cell division is studied in many research laboratories throughout the world. These investigations are uncovering the genetic mechanisms that regulate and drive bacterial cell division. Understanding the mechanics of this process is of great interest because it may allow for the design of new chemicals or novel antibiotics that specifically target and interfere with cell division in bacteria.
This, though a broad statement, is true as far as I can tell.
Glycolysis evolved very early in ancestors that are common to all the domains of life.
This is because the site of glycolysis is cytoplasm which is present in both prokaryotes as well as eukaryotes.
As prokaryotes are the early ancestors of all domains of life therefore it is also considered that glycolysis is evolved very early.
Answer:
The substance moves from low to high concentration, against the concentration gradient.
Explanation:
When molecules move from high to low concentration, it is known as Diffusion. It moves with the concentration gradient and does not require energy.
However, when molecules move from low to high concentration, it is against the concentration gradient and cannot proceed without Energy. This process is called Active transport.
Cell membrane is not thick, it is thin and semi permeable.
