Answer:

It looks like there are two main ways to modify humans :)

Explanation:

1. Somatic genetic modification would be the direct way to genetically modify through adding or cutting some of the cells of an existing person usually to alleviate a medical condition (but the results are not hereditary)

2. Germline genetic modification is also a direct way to genetically modify but instead using molecular engineering techniques (this would be hereditary)

When does the cell have to use active transport?

kati45 [8]

The best answer is D.

In active transport, molecules move against a concentration gradient from areas of lower concentration to areas of higher concentration. This happens a lot in neurons. The membrane proteins are constantly pumping ions in and out to get the membrane of the neuron ready to transmit electrical impulses.

In active transport , energy is required to move molecules across the cell membrane. Carrier proteins are needed for this e.g. proteins of the GLUT family which transport glucose molecules across the cell membrane. Carrier proteins are very specific. GLUT proteins will only move glucose molecules and not sodium or calcium. There are hundreds of types of carrier proteins.
