Which of the following statements about active transport is true?

Biology
1 answer:
Roman55 [17]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It results in a higher concentration of molecules on one side of the membrane.

Explanation:

Active transport is the transport of molecules up the concentration gradient. This means that molecules are going from low density to high density. This is the opposite of natural diffusion. So, it requires ATP to move the molecules this way. Diffusion normally occurs to maintain homeostasis and an equal amount of concentration on both sides of a membrane. But, with active transport, since molecules are moving up the gradient, the opposite happens and the concentrations are unequal.

Explanation:

1. Zygomycetes reproduce asexually through the haploid spores formed in sporangia, or sexually through diploid nuclei formed in zygospore.

2. Basidiomycota are called club fungi because they produce club-shaped reproductive structures like toadstools.

3. The vegetative body of most fungi is called a hyphae, which consists of an interwoven mass of threadlike filaments called mycelium.

4.  A lichen is a symbiotic association between a fungus and a single-celled alga or cyanobacteria. The fungus protects the photosynthesizer from harsh conditions while consuming the extra nutrients it produces.

5. A mycorrhiza is a symbiotic association between a fungus and the roots of a plant. The fungus receives energy-rich sugar molecules produced by the plant while passing minerals and nutrients from the soil to the root.

6. Ascomycota, also known as sac fungi, include morels, yeasts, and the species that produces penicillin.

qwelly [4]

Answer:

D.) both a and c

Explanation:

Past observations made early in history as well as telescopes and space probes are very important in studying our universe and galaxies.

  • Space probes are increasingly gaining momentum as technological and scientific advancements are being made.
  • Telescopes are used to see or picture objects that are very far away in space.
  • Also, understanding the past records and historical data is essential for the study of the universe.

Microscopes are not used in galactic studies. They are only used to study the world of micro-organisms.

Consider the following food chain: garden plants are eaten by snails, which are eaten by birds, which are eaten by the household
SIZIF [17.4K]
The garden plants and snails stay balanced as they are still being eaten. However, if the cat is removed, the birds will overpopulate and then the snail would be eaten and decrease faster which gives garden plants an increase in population due to the decrease in snails. Hope this helps!
