Answer:
b. diffusion and osmosis across semi-permeable membranes
Explanation:
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a high energy carrying molecule in the system of living organisms. It posseses the ability to store and release energy for use by organisms during biochemical activities. However, some processes do not require ATP to occur and are called PASSIVE TRANSPORT while those that require energy (ATP) are called ACTIVE TRANSPORT.
In the above options, the processes listed as follows require ATP to occur:
- The active transport of glucose from the small intestine to the blood
- The movement of the flagella of sperm for motility
- Exocytosis of waste substances across a semi-permeable membrane
However, the diffusion and osmosis across semi-permeable membranes, which is a passive transport does not require ATP.
Answer:
The answer is B, I believe, because it states here that, "Enzymes are highly selective catalysts, meaning that each enzyme only speeds up a specific reaction. ... The molecules that an enzyme works with are called substrates. The substrates bind to a region on the enzyme called the active site. There are two theories explaining the enzyme-substrate interaction."
The correct answer is :
Some substances but not other can cross the (blank ) membrane of a cell. The blank is to be filled with either cell or plasma. Cell membrane or plasma membrane is the living boundary of a cell which is made of phospholipid. It is a semi-permeable or differentially permeable membrane. It only allows small and non-polar molecules to pass through it. It prevents polar ions or molecules to pass through it
As humans sometimes experience, a cold environment can result in<span> </span>shivering<span>. This is when skeletal muscles begin to shake in small movements, creating warmth by expending energy. Humans can also sweat in high temperatures. The water on the surface of the skin is able to absorb a lot of heat during evaporation, resulting in cooling of the body.</span>
