cell homeostasis
which homeostatic process requires energy to move particles across the plasma membrane?
passive transport
osmosis
dynamic equilibrium
active transport
Brief Explanations
To determine the homeostatic process that requires energy for particle movement across the plasma membrane, we analyze each option:
- Passive transport (including osmosis, a type of passive transport) moves particles along the concentration gradient without energy.
- Dynamic equilibrium refers to a state, not a transport process.
- Active transport moves particles against the concentration gradient, which requires energy (e.g., ATP).
