They are catalysts of all biochemical metabolic reactions of the body.
Answer:
D (proteins moving ions from low to high concentration across a cell membrane)
Explanation:
Active transport, by definition, is a type of substance transport that requires energy (typically in the form of ATP). Having said that, we can immediately eliminate B (aka water diffusion throughout the cytoplasm of a cell), as diffusion (osmosis in this case) does not require any expenditure/spending of energy. Next, we can cancel A and C because although they do require energy, there is no transport involved. Thus that leaves us with D. D is not only the answer because of the process of elimination but also b/c the ans. choice says that ions are being moved from low to high concentration, which is against the concentration gradient and thus requires energy.

White blood cells use "legs" to grab ahold of the blood vessel walls to inch their way forward.
Yes, this is true, and it is actually one of the organisms driving evolution! Some organisms develop mutations that are actually beneficial (better eye-sight, for example) and they're more likely to pass those to their children that individuals without those mutations!
Fermentation occurs in anaerobic respiration, and produces less energy than in aerobic respiration due to the lack of ETC because oxygen is not present.
