Answer 1

Answer:

I'm feeling nice today so heres the answer

Explanation:

In the portion of the cell membrane shown in the diagram, the arrow indicates the process of active transport.

Explanation:

Active transport is one of the mechanisms of transmembrane transport, which involves the use of energy. The diagram (see image) shows the hydrogen (H⁺) output from the cytoplasm to the extracellular space, through an H⁺ pump —consuming ATP— which represents an active transport process.

The hydrophobic nature of the cell membrane prevents the free passage of hydrosoluble elements or ions, as H⁺, so they require the use of active transport to pass through it.

The other options presented are not correct, because

Respiration is a process that occurs in the mitochondria.

Diffusion is a passive transport process that does not require energy.

Cellular recognition depends on membrane proteins that act as specific receptors.
