How does active and passive transport apply to your life

Biology
2 answers:
klasskru [66]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

There are two major ways that molecules can be moved across a membrane, and the distinction has to do with whether or not cell energy is used. Passive mechanisms like diffusion use no energy, while active transport requires energy to get done.

Active is uh using energy

passive is using no energy

so if we were to apply that to our lives, uhm mostly everything is active cuz a lot of objects, people, animals, etc are using energy to do everyday things

What are mutations and how do they affect an organism?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Mutations can affect an organism by changing its physical characteristics (or phenotype) or it can impact the way DNA codes the genetic information (genotype). When mutations occur they can cause termination (death) of an organism or they can be partially lethal

How are things transported through the membrane
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The mechanisms of transport across the cell membrane are as follow: 1- simple diffusion, 2- facilitated diffusion, 3- primary active transport and 4-secondary active transport

Explanation:

The cell membrane is a selectively permeable structure capable of transporting substances by different mechanisms. Simple diffusion is a type of passive transport (i.e. does not require energy) where non-polar molecules (e.g. O2, CO2) pass across the membrane by a process that does not require energy from the cell. Facilitated diffusion is another type of passive transport where larger polar molecules (e.g., glucose and amino acids) pass across the membrane by using specific transmembrane integral proteins. On the other hand, primary active transport is a type of active transport that uses chemical energy (e.g., ATP) to move substances such as metal ions (Na+, K+, Ca2+) across the cell membrane against their concentration gradient. Finally, secondary active transport is another type of active transport where transporter proteins are used to couple the movement of ions (e.g., H+ protons) down their electrochemical gradient to the transport of another ions/solutes against their concentration/ electrochemical gradient.

Anole lizards mainly eat small insects. Suppose an anole lizard saw a bright red butterfly and ate it, but was ill afterwards. F
Phoenix [80]

The answer is D. learned behavior.

A change in behavior of an organism takes place due an experience is called learning. Animals learn behavior in many ways. On such way is given the question that anole lizard ate bright red butterfly instead small insects which are its normal food and became ill. Anole lizard learned through experience that bright red insects are not its food. Thus, a learned behavior is one that an organism develops by encountering experience.
