Answer:

Primary active transport

Explanation:

Primary active transport is the transport in which molecules are moved against their gradient, with direct use of ATP as an energy source. Na/K pump  is an example  of primary active transport: Na ions are transported out of cell, K ions are moved into the cell. This pumps maintain concentrations of those ions and also creates voltage across the cell membrane, which can be used for the secondary active transport of other molecules (e.g. glucose).

dusya [7]

The answer is D) desertification and deforestation

To know the answer you can rule out the non-possibilities. A is not correct because farmers use them all the time. B is not correct because water and pesticides can flow downstream and carry and deposit sediment. C is not correct because farmers can flood their own farms. When they plant things and a food comes, all of those plants will die or their roots will detach which lowers the food that can be sold. D is correct because farmers don't farm in the desert or the forest, so it would not be an impact of farming.

5 facts about Anaphase Mitosis ?
Klio2033 [76]
The sister chromatids are then pulled apart by the mitotic spindle which pulls one chromatid to one pole and the other chromatid to the opposite pole.

The chromosomes line up neatly end-to-end along the centre (equator) of the cell.
The centrioles are now at opposite poles of the cell with the mitotic spindle fibres extending from them.
The mitotic spindle fibres attach to each of the sister chromatids.

The DNA in the cell is copied in preparation for cell division, this results in two identical full sets of chromosomes?.
Outside of the nucleus? are two centrosomes, each containing a pair of centrioles, these structures are critical for the process of cell division.
