Answer:

D diffusion across a membrane

Explanation:

Based on whether or not energy input is required, there are two types of processes viz: passive and active. Passive processes are those that do not require energy input in form of ATP while active processes require energy input to occur.

An example of passive process is DIFFUSION, which is the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration across a membrane. Diffusion is passive i.e does not require energy, because movement occurs down a concentration gradient.

Other processes in the options like cell division, DNA replication and protein synthesis all require energy input to occur.

What would happen if you flew into jupiter?
aleksley [76]
A major problem in sending space probes to Jupiter is that the planet has no solid surface on which to land, as there is a smooth transition between the planet's atmosphere and its fluid interior. Any probes descending into the atmosphere are eventually crushed by the immense pressures within Jupiter

Why isn't 100% of energy passed from one trophic level to the next
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms of the next level. More specifically, 90% of metabolic energy is used, so only 10% will be passed down to the next level.
