Answer:
The correct word to be fill in the blank is 'energy.'
Explanation:
Secondary active transport is a type of active transport, which involves transport of molecules or ions across the membrane against their concentration gradient by using energy.
In secondary active transport, energy is provided by electrochemical gradient. It involves transport of two molecules or ions (either in same or opposite direction) and required energy is generated due to difference in electrochemical gradient formed by pumping or ions across the cells.
An example of secondary transport is transport of potassium ions by K+/H+ exchanger that transports hydrogen ions and potassium ions in opposite direction. It uses energy from proton motive force (generated by transport of hydrogen ions or protons) to transport potassium ions.
Thus, the correct answer is 'energy.'
Answer: False
Explanation:
In case any victim is suspected from the spinal or neck injury then the victim should not be moved on any side. He must be left untouched.
Doing so can make the person permanently paralysed. Try to cover the front and back of the neck with rolled piece of clothe but do not move the person unnecessarily.
Hence, the given statement is False.
