Which of these processes does not require the cell to use energy A cell division b protein synthesis c DNA replication D diffusion across a membrane

D diffusion across a membrane

Explanation:

Based on whether or not energy input is required, there are two types of processes viz: passive and active. Passive processes are those that do not require energy input in form of ATP while active processes require energy input to occur.

An example of passive process is DIFFUSION, which is the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration across a membrane. Diffusion is passive i.e does not require energy, because movement occurs down a concentration gradient.

Other processes in the options like cell division, DNA replication and protein synthesis all require energy input to occur.

the correct answer is - d. china has a large and growing population.

the fact that china has a large (the biggest) population, and it is still growing, doesn't hinder the agriculture production in the country. in fact, it can for increased production in the agriculture, since there's more labor force, as well the sheer mass of people produces lots of scientists that come up with new inventions as to how to improve this sector. nice example is the inner mongolia region in china, in general dominated by the gobi desert, but few scientist came up with a nice idea as to how to make the region productive by using plants that are very resistant to droughts, so lots of people have been employed, and the region is becoming greener and greener each year, and the production of food in this region is also increasing.
