What is the main difference between active transport and passive transport? (A) During active transport the water inside the cell is used to transport substances throughout the cell. Passive transport uses the cell's cytoplasm to move substances around the cell.

(B) Passive transport moves substances throughout the cell without using the cell's energy and active transport moves substances using the cell's energy.

(C) Active transport moves substances from higher concentrations to lower concentrations and passive transport moves substances from lower concentrations to higher concentrations.

(D) Passive transport moves substances that are too large to get through the cell membrane by forming a vesicle inside the cell and active transport forms the vesicle on the outside of the cell.​

Over the past 60 years, many amphibian species have experienced significant population declines and some species have become extinct. scientists suspected that local human activities such as the destruction of wetlands, regional pollution, and deforestation were the main reasons for these losses. however, research over the past 20 years reveals significant amphibian population declines in protected areas of the world, such as nature preserves and parks. these global declines suggest widespread problems including increased ultraviolet radiation, acid rain, and disease. in switzerland, for example, 14 of the 20 native amphibian species are threatened with extinction. chytridiomycosis is a fungal disease first identified in 1998 as a cause of massive amphibian deaths. in some severely impacted populations, a few individuals have survived, perhaps because of some natural resistance. if these resistant individuals continue to survive and prosper, new resistant populations might emerge. this would be an example of the founder effect artificial selection genetic drift natural selection sexual selection

Four different thermometers were used to measure the temperature of a sample of pure boiling water. the measurements are recorded in the table below. thermometer temperature reading 1 temperature reading 2 temperature reading 3 w 100.1°c 99.9°c 96.9°c x 100.4°c 102.3°c 101.4°c y 90.0°c 95.2°c 98.6°c z 90.8°c 90.6°c 90.7°c the actual boiling point of pure water is 100.0°c. what can be concluded from the data about the reliability and validity of the thermometers?
