Is hypertonic active or passive transport

Biology
1 answer:
Len [333]3 years ago

I'm a little confused by this question. Hypertonic just means that something has more of something than another thing. For example, if you place a cell in a solution, and 2% of the cell is made out of something while the solution is made out of 40% of the same thing, the solution would be hypertonic to the cell. Sorry if that explanation doesn't make sense, I tried my best lol.

Although I'd assume the answer is passive transport as anything that is hypertonic to something else will diffuse down its gradient in an attempt to reach a balance.

What is the effect of exercise on carbon dioxide production
seraphim [82]

Answer:

When you exercise, the muscles you use require more energy. When exercise can be sustained, this demand is met primarily by aerobic means. Aerobic energy production in muscles results in increased gas exchange at the lungs, because more oxygen is taken in and more carbon dioxide is released.
