Select all of the following that describe passive transport

Biology
1 answer:
SashulF [63]3 years ago
7 0

The correct statements that describe passive transport are:

  • A. the process of moving substances from high to low concentration
  • E. move substances with or down the concentration gradient
  • F. no energy is used in transport
  • G. The end result is a dynamic equilibrium of substances on both sides of the cell membrane.

Passive transport is defined as the movement of a solute from a region of high concentration area or electrochemical potential on one side of the cell membrane to a region of lower concentration or electrochemical potential on the opposite side.

  • Passive transport does not require energy input
  • The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
  • movement is down the concentration gradient
  • movement is continuous until it reaches the dynamic equilibrium of substances on both sides of the cell membrane
  • Diffusion and osmosis are examples of this transport.

Thus, the correct options are - A, E, F, and G.

How would a mutation increase genetic variation?
Lena [83]

Answer:

DNA mutation causes genetic variation by altering the genes of individuals in a population. Gene flow leads to genetic variation as new individuals with different gene combinations migrate into a population.

The flow of individuals in and out of a population introduces new alleles and increases genetic variation within that population. Mutations are changes to an organism’s DNA that create diversity within a population by introducing new alleles.

Also the women are at higher risk of infection. The reason is both physical and socio-cultural.

How does cloning work and work are the basics​
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

How cloning works: In reproductive cloning, researchers remove a mature somatic cell, such as a skin cell, from an animal that they wish to copy. They then transfer the DNA of the donor animal's somatic cell into an egg cell, or oocyte, that has had its own DNA-containing nucleus removed. ... This young animal is referred to as a clone.  

Basics of cloning:

Isolation of target DNA fragments (often referred to as inserts)

Ligation of inserts into an appropriate cloning vector, creating recombinant molecules (e.g., plasmids)

Transformation of recombinant plasmids into bacteria or other suitable host for propagation.

Screening/selection of hosts containing the intended recombinant plasmid .
