Active and passive transport are important processes that help the cell?
A. maintain the cellular membrane.
B. change the size and shape
C. regulate the uptake and removal of materials.
D. metabolize materials.
I don't know if I'm wrong but I think it's C?
1. Regulate the Uptake and removal of materials
2. Water
3. mRNA functions as a template for protein synthesis
4. U;G
5. Golgi Apparatus
6. movement
7. peristalsis
8. Both assist with the breakdown of fats
9. circulatory
10. bone marrow
11. A dissected pigs inner structure is slightly different than a human's.
It was A for me but it is regulate the uptake and removal of materials.
It’s C regulate the uptake and removal of materials
Astrid is correct
Astrid is 100% correct as of the time of this writing in honors.
You are correct, option C is the most appropriate choice. Active and passive transport are crucial processes that enable cells to regulate the uptake and removal of materials. Let me explain the concepts of active and passive transport to give you a better understanding.
Active transport refers to the movement of molecules or ions across a cell membrane against their concentration gradient, meaning from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration. This process requires the cell to use energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to pump substances across the membrane.
On the other hand, passive transport is the movement of molecules or ions across a cell membrane along their concentration gradient, meaning from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Unlike active transport, passive transport does not require energy expenditure by the cell.
Both active and passive transport play important roles in maintaining the cellular membrane and regulating the uptake and removal of materials. Active transport allows the cell to move substances against their concentration gradient, enabling it to control the internal environment and perform functions such as nutrient absorption, waste removal, and ion transport. Passive transport, on the other hand, facilitates the movement of substances down their concentration gradient and is involved in processes such as diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion.
In summary, while active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient, passive transport occurs spontaneously along the concentration gradient. Together, these processes help the cell maintain its membrane integrity and regulate the uptake and removal of materials.
