Biology
1 answer:
denpristay [2]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D. Molecules called pumps function to control active transport.

Explanation:

Active transport is one of the two types of transport (the other being passive transport). It is the type of transport in which substances move against their concentration gradient i.e. from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. Hence, due to this, energy input in form of ATP is required by the cell.

However, the process of active transport makes use of certain molecules called PUMPS to control it. The pumps moves ions/molecules against their concentration gradient. An example is the sodium-pottasium pump which moves sodium ions from a region of low conc. to a region of high conc.

valina [46]

low speciation because Speciation is how a new kind of plant or animal species is created. Speciation occurs when a group within a species separates from other members of its species and develops its own unique characteristics and also people don't live on Islands so that there wouldn't be people to plant plants and there wouldn't be animals on island because animals won't be able to survive because they have less food
