When does the cell have to use active transport

A cell goes through active transport in order to move molecules across the membrane against a gradient. This is key because the concentration of most molecules inside a cell is different than the concentration of molecules in the surrounding environment. The plasma membrane separates the internal environment of the cell from the fluid bathing the cell and regulates the flow of molecules both into and out of the cell. The second law of thermodynamics states that molecules, whether in the gas or liquid state, will move spontaneously from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration or down their concentration gradient.

Hope this helps, and if your feeling generous feel free to leave a rate, thanks or brainliest because it would really help me reach virtuoso. ;)

the answer is: reproductively

i think i spelled it wrong lol

anyways hope i

stimulus is a change in the environment that causes an organism to react. the response is the reaction to the stimulus. some examples of stimuli for zebras are drought, to many predators, and bad feeding grounds such as dead grass or plants. zebras respond to stimuli just like all other living organisms
