d. atp and vesicles

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Question 7:
  • Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi - permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration. It is a passive process and does not require ATP.
  • Facilitated diffusion is the movement of molecules (such as glucose) across a membrane with the help of transport proteins. It is also a passive process and does not require ATP.
  • Active transport is the movement of molecules against their concentration gradient (from low to high concentration). This process requires energy in the form of ATP.
  • Simple diffusion is the movement of small, non - polar molecules (like oxygen) across a membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. It is a passive process and does not require ATP.
  • Question 8:
  • Exocytosis is the process by which a cell releases large molecules (such as proteins) by fusing vesicles with the plasma membrane.
  • Endocytosis is the process by which a cell takes in large molecules by forming vesicles.
  • Osmosis is the movement of water across a membrane.
  • Passive transport is a general term for processes (like simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion) that do not require energy.
  • Question 9:
  • Diffusion is the movement of molecules (not specifically water) from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
  • Osmosis is the specific movement of water through a membrane.
  • Exocytosis is the release of substances from a cell.
  • Active transport is the movement of molecules against their concentration gradient and requires energy.
  • Question 10:
  • Facilitated diffusion is a passive process. It does not require energy (ATP).
  • It requires a helper protein (such as a channel protein or a carrier protein) to move molecules (usually polar or large molecules) across the membrane.
  • It is not limited to large molecules. Small polar molecules (like some ions) can also be transported by facilitated diffusion.
  • It does not require ATP and vesicles. Vesicles are involved in processes like endocytosis and exocytosis.

Answer:

  1. C. Active transport
  2. B. Endocytosis
  3. B. Osmosis
  4. B. No energy but a helper protein
