Active transport is a type of transport that requires energy to move substances across a membrane. It occurs against a concentration gradient.

  • The use of energy to move waste materials out of a cell is an EXAMPLE of transport active.

  • Active transport occurs against a concentration gradient, whereas passive transport (i.e., diffusion) occurs in favor of a concentration gradient.

  • Active transport can be mediated by membrane proteins that move substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

  • This movement (active transport ) usually requires the energy provided by the hydrolysis of ATP.

  • Water molecules move across cellular membranes through membrane protein channels called aquaporins that act in favor of a concentration gradient (passive transport).

Only 9 and 10 have to be answered! Thank you.

9: Well big groups of birds are often found competing for food, causing fights and even death due to the fight. If a flock of birds from population A goes to population B, there would be more competition due to birds wanting food and nesting places that are good.

10: Many species evolve to suit environmental changes, but let's say this change in the environment was bad. Pollution, species of aggressive animals, which would eat the food the animals need and cause a downgrade in food leaving the area bare, and hunting, which would bring humans to the area and cause them to camp out, eat the animals and wild vegetables, such,   can cause negative population changes. Due to these things birds could get sick and die off, causing population to go down. If trash and sewage are not cleaned up it could affect the birds food source and cause it to be bad for a long time, the aggressive animals would kill and eat the birds causing a continuous spiral of death, and hunting could cause them to die.

D. Lysogenic cycle. In this cycle, viral DNA is inserted into the host cell's DNA. It divides with mitosis, soon creating many infected host cells. Once the lytic cycle is triggered (usually from external factors), the viral DNA is transcribed/translated into viruses.
