Which of the following describe the role a biochemical pump plays in active transport? a it prevents water from moving across the cell membrane. b it uses energy to move materials across the cell membrane against the concentration gradient. c it large molecules cross the cell membrane without using energy. d it a cell move molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

In active transport, the molecules generally move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. I believe the answer is D.

the answer will be a) proteins i believe

the potatoes have high sugar concentrations and although these potatoes were different we could seethe effects that their sugar concentrations had in different environments. for example, the potatoes in sample a, were placed in pure water. this created a hypertonic environment and caused the potatoes to draw in water from its surroundings. we saw the opposite happen with the potatoes in sample b when placed in the sodium chloride solution. the potatoes in this case were in a hypotonic solution and therefore lost water to their surroundings.
