Active transport is the moving of molecules across the membrane of the cell against the concentration gradient with the use of ATP.
Low to high concentration. Concentration gradient is the diffusion (movement of molecules from regions of low concentration) from high to low with the gradient. Active transport is from low to high, against the gradient.
Answer:
Cells are not actually spliting
Explanation:
In interphase cells are growing, and making DNA.
<span>organisms cannot adapt faster than rates of extinction</span>
Answer:
- They allow for more collisions of molecules (enzymes + substrates)
- They lower the amount of activation energy needed to complete the reaction.
- They speed up chemical reactions to form more products
Explanation:
Enzymes are proteinous molecules that serves as catalyst in living systems. Like every other catalyst, enzymes function to SPEED UP the rate of biochemical reactions by LOWERING/REDUCING the activation energy, which is the energy required for a reactant to form product (completion of reaction).
Enzymes like other catalysts causes faster movement of molecules in the reaction i.e. they allow for more collisions of molecules (enzymes + substrates). This causes the rate of reaction to increase and hence, speeden the reaction.
