How are facilitated diffusion and active transport different?
Because facilitated diffusion moves moolecules from regions of higher concentration toward lower concentration, active transport moves particles through membranes from region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration
Describe how dissolved particles move across a plasma membrane form regions of lower to higher concentrations?
Things move across the membrane from lower to higher concentrations by active transport.
Why don't cities in the same hemisphere have similar temperatures?
The reason is because of Ocean/Surface Currents. The cities are in the same hemisphere, but they don't receive the same ocean current. Some ocean currents are warm, while some are cold.The Ocean/Surface Currents have an effect on the air temperatures, too. Another reason is because of latitude. When a city is at a higher latitude the air expands and makes the temperature colder ,while if the latitude is lower the air loses moisture and the temperature heats up.
Do currents of cold sinking air produce regions of higher pressure or lower pressure at the earths surface?
Sinking air would add air to the surface, raising the pressure.
What does latitude do to the climate?
the lower the latitude the higher the temp.
How can a cell transport a substance from lower to higher concentration?
active transport
What can you Compare and contrast about flood and ebb current?
Flood currents occur when the tide is rising and water is moving towards the shore, while ebb currents occur when the tide is falling and water is moving away from the shore. Flood currents typically bring in nutrient-rich water and are associated with higher water levels, while ebb currents can be stronger and are associated with lower water levels. Both currents can influence navigation, sediment transport, and marine life in coastal areas.
Why do and breezes occur?
Convection currents cause the air to rise when heated. This causes the air pressure to become lower on the surface, which then pulls in air from nearby regions, which is felt as wind.
''Were are glaciers located?
Glaciers are mainly found near the polar regions, such as Antarctica and Greenland, as well as in high mountain ranges around the world, like the Alps, the Andes, and the Himalayas. Glaciers can also be found in some lower latitude regions depending on the climate and elevation.
What is the movement of particles from regions of lower density to regions of higher density?
The movement so described is called diffusion. When particles of regions of higher density move to regions of lower density, they are said to diffuse.
Would a city at lower latitude have a higher average temperature than a city at higher latitude?
Yes. Since latitude is measured in degrees north or south of the Equator (0° latitude), the lower latitude numbers are closer to the tropics, while the higher ones are comparatively closer to the poles. Although it is not always true, locations at "lower" latitude numbers will generally be warmer than locations at "higher" numbers.
What are the regions of lower limbs?
