Passive transport uses no energy because its moving molecules the concentration gradient while active transport uses energy because its moving molecule the concentration gradient.

Aneuron is stimulated with an electric pulse. the action potential is detected at a point 3.70 cm down the axon 0.0052 s later. when the action potential is detected 7.20 cm from the point of stimulation, the time required is 0.0063 s. what is the speed of the electric pulse along the axon? (why are two measurements needed instead of only one? )

Researchers determine that the biodiversity in a woodland region is declining. they identify two major threats to the region's biodiversity, a method to address each threat, and the expected outcome of each method. this information is shown in the table. threat method number of species that benefit number of years to see benefit habitat fragmentation reforestation 450 8 introduced prey species biological augmentation 150 2 which statement is an accurate explanation of the information in the table? a. biological augmentation would benefit only a few species because it is typically not very effective. b. biological augmentation would take less time to be effective because it targets the majority of prey species. c. reforestation would take the longest time to be effective because trees take several years to grow. d. reforestation would not benefit many species because most forest species live on the ground.

Consider the motion of the balloon and its air contents in terms of momentum. in step 1 above, the total momentum of the balloon and its contents was zero. recall that momentum = mv. both the balloon and the air inside it had a velocity of zero and therefore the total momentum was zero. now think about what happened when the air escaped from the balloon. a certain mass of air accelerated in one direction. in order to keep the total momentum of the system zero, the balloon itself (which has mass) had to accelerate in the opposite direction. use this scenario to you explain why the soda can rotates when the water squirts out of the escape holes. what was your hypothesis concerning the water-filled can? according to your data, do you think your hypothesis was correct? (be sure to refer to your data when answering this question.) summarize any difficulties or problems you had in performing the experiment that might have affected the results. describe how you might change the procedure to avoid these problems. give at least one more example of newton's third law in everyday life.
