how does active transport help maintain cellular homeostasis?
removing excess protein products
degrading foreign dna
maintaining proper molecule concentrations
Brief Explanations
To determine the answer, we analyze each option:
- "removing excess protein products": Active transport is not primarily for removing excess proteins (usually done by other mechanisms like proteasomes).
- "degrading foreign DNA": Active transport doesn't involve DNA degradation (restriction enzymes or other systems handle this).
- "maintaining proper molecule concentrations": Active transport moves molecules (like ions, nutrients) against gradients to keep internal concentrations stable, which is key for homeostasis.
