Minerals are dissolved in rainwater. The plant absorbs the water through its root system. Water is transported throughout the plant by capillary action - which draws the water upwards (like sucking on a straw)

What is the differnce between active and passive transport?
passive doesn't neeed energy but active transport does
Active transport systems are a form of cell transport that requires energy from molecules of?
The product of ATP decomposition...
Is the following sentence true or false active transport always requires transport proteins during the process?
false
What is the movement of a substance against the substances concentration gradient?
Active transport, or reverse osmosis; depending upon conditions.
Minerals found in the Philippines?
The Philippines has many minerals that are found in this country. These minerals are, copper, gold, chromite, gravel, platinum, and silver.
How are minerals transported by plants?
Plants employ osmosis to move minerals into plant root cells. To transport minerals to the plant proper, energy is required so active transport is employed.
Is minerals movement into plant root passive or active?
active transport
Examples of active transport in animals?
Plants take in minerals like nitrates through their roots by active transport. The concentration of minerals in the root cells is normally higher than in the soil around them. Active transport uses energy from respiration to move minerals from the soil into the roots.
Does diffusion help phloem to absorb minerals from the soil or active transport?
anything
Which is a form of active transport?
active transport as it requires energy provided by ATP
Is mineral movement into plant root an active transport or passive transport?
Mineral movement into plant roots is typically an active transport process. It requires energy to move minerals against their concentration gradient from the soil into the plant roots. Transport proteins such as pumps or carriers are involved in this process to facilitate the movement of minerals into the plant.
Is diffusion through ion channels a form of active transport?
Facilitated diffusion, or diffusion through ion channels, is not a form of active transport. It is a spontaneous passive transport.
Sodium ions cross a membrane that transport proteins that receive an energy boost this is a case of?
Active Transport :)
What is used to move a substance through a membrane in active transport?
Electrochemical gradient is used to move substances through a membrane in active transport.
What is the definition of active transport?
active transport is an energy reqiuring process in which transport proteins bind with particles and move them through a cell membrane
What type of transport is used during glucose reabsorbtion?
Passive transport is used during glucose reabsorption in the kidneys. This process involves the movement of glucose molecules across the renal tubular cells down their concentration gradient without the need for energy.
Is active transport vital to living organisms?
Yes it is. There are many examples of active transport in living organisms.1. Plant roots absorb minerals from the soil water surrounding them by active transport.2. In the Human body, the glucose formed during digestion passes from the small intestine into the blood stream by active transport.
