What are the different methods of transport across a membrane ?

Biology

dusya [7]3 years ago

If I remember correctly, there are two main types of transport—passive and active. Passive transport does not require energy or ATP, whereas active transport does.


Types of passive transport include diffusion and osmosis, both of which involve moving down a concentration gradient and thus not requiring energy.


Active transport moves up the concentration gradient and does require energy.


Perhaps someone who has taken bio within the last several years can correct anything I might have misstated here.

Can you explain how more life-forms were able to create because of cyanobacteria​ PLEASE HELP
Ainat [17]

The cyanobacteria changed the composition of the earth’s atmosphere by evolving oxygen in what is referred to as the Great Oxygenation Event. This also allowed the ozone to be formed and block off most of the UV rays that are destructive to genetic material. Life was, therefore, also able to exist on land other than in water.

Water is essential for life. Its special properties make water the single most important molecule in plant life. Which propertie
Harman [31]

Answer:

Because water exhibits cohesive behavior.

Explanation:

Cohesive behavior can be explained as a behavior where molecules are attracted to each other.

And this means that,  water molecules are attracted to each  other because of their cohesive behavior. This makes them to be  attracted to other substances, such as the walls of the xylem of plants.

In this case, it is believed that the water molecules behave this  way because they are polar, that is, there is an electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms. And this enables it to move from the roots to the leaves of the plants.
