The recent hominin fossil finds from Ileret, Kenya, negate the conventional view held since 1960 that H. habilisand H. erectusev
Citrus2011 [14]
<h2>The given statement is true</h2>

Explanation:

The recent finding of the fossils which showed that <em>Homo erectus</em> and <em>Homo habilis</em> lived side by side in eastern Africa for perhaps half a million years challenged the conventional way that these two species evolved one after the other(<em>H.habilis</em> 1.44 million years old and <em>H.erectus </em>1.55 million years old)

  • The fossils were found in Kenya and took years to prepare the specimens for study and to be sure of the identification of the species, the scientists said
  • University of Utah geologists determined the dates of the fossils from volcanic ash deposits
  • The most recent <em>Homo habilis</em> that had been known was about the same age as the earliest <em>Homo erectus</em><em>,</em> said Daniel Lieberman, a professor of biological anthropology at Harvard University, “Now we have extended the duration of the habilis species, and there’s no doubt that it overlaps considerably with erectus”
  • The fact that the two hominid species lived together in the same lake basin for so long and remained separate species, Meave Leakey said in a statement from Nairobi, “suggests that they had their own ecological niche, thus avoiding direct competition”

Distinguish between active and passive transport. Make sure to provide examples of each. Why are the functions of active and pas
Julli [10]
<h2>Active & Passive transport</h2>

Explanation:

  • Active transport is where a chemical reaction using ATP moves things in/out of the cell through transport proteins within the cell wall. It uses a concentration gradient to trigger the reaction (it goes against the concentration gradient in active transport)
  • Molecules move against a concentration gradient ( low concentration ―→ high concentration)
  • Cellular energy (ATP) is required
  • Passive transport also uses a concentration gradient by diffusion (hydrophobic or very small polar molecules) and facilitated diffusion via carrier proteins and channels
  • Molecules move along the concentration gradient (high concentration ―→ low concentration)
  • No cellular energy is required
