Active transport is different than passive transport in that:

Biology
1 answer:
torisob [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct answer is: A. active transport requires energy.

Explanation:

  • Active transport can be defined as the physiological process by which molecules are enforced to migrate from a region where their concentration is low to a region where their concentration is high across a semi-permeable membrane. This occurs by the expenditure of energy. This type of movement is usually carried out by the integral membrane transport proteins or carrier proteins those remain interspersed across the plasma membrane.
  • Passive transport can be defined as the physiological process in which no energy expenditure is required. This is because in this form of transport, molecules move from a region where their concentration is high to a region where their concentration is low, that is, down the gradient of their concentration, across a semi-permeable membrane. This type of movement can be mediated by simple diffusion or with the help of membrane transport proteins.

HELP ASAP use the particle theory to explain why hot chocolate powder dissolves more rapidly in hot water than cold water
Yuliya22 [10]

Explanation:

To dissolve, solvent particles must come in contact with solvent particles. Particles of hot water are moving much more rapidly than particles of cold water. Hence, in hot water more water particles will come in contact with hot chocolate powder than in cold water, resulting in faster dissolving.

How would shoot and root growth be affected by a mutation that caused plants to lose the ability to polymerize glucose into star
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

b) Lateral branch shoots would grow more horizontally and have less of a tendency to turn upward.

d) Lateral branch roots fully embedded in soil would grow randomly upward and downward.

e) Roots breaking the soil surface would grow upward.

Explanation:

Inside the amyloplasts of the common bean the starch granules resemble variously sized cotton balls stuffed into a balloon. Under normal circumstances amyloplasts do nothing more than sit on the bottom of special gravity-sensing cells. When a plant is knocked over, the amyloplasts slide from what was recently the bottom of the cell onto a formerly vertical wall. Somehow, this movement is sensed and relayed to cells that secrete the growth-regulating plant hormone auxin.

Since the plant has lost the ability to transform glucose into the granules. The plant can´t differentiate between up or down because gravity is what causes these granules to settle down.
