Answer:

The correct answer is - active transport.

Explanation:

Active transport is the movement of a substance that crosses the cell membrane against the concentration gradient and therefore requires energy in the form of ATP. In contrast, passive transport does not require energy for the movement of a substance through the cell membrane as it moves to the concentration gradient.

This movement of molecules is towards the region of high concentration from the region of lower concentration through the cell membrane by elcectrochemical gradient or ATP.

How to use bacteria as a treatment for sewage waste

algol [13]

Answer: hope this helps

Explanation:

Aerobic bacteria use oxygen, which is added mechanically, to break down wastewater contaminants, converting it into energy. Bacteria use this energy to grow and reproduce. Anaerobic bacteria obtain oxygen from their food source. As anaerobic bacteria break down sludge, they produce methane gas. This methane gas can be used as an alternative energy source, called biogas, to fuel the wastewater treatment process.
