Q:

Is Osmosis Active or Passive?

Answer

Osmosis is the process in which water molecules move from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower potential down a water potential gradient across a partially permeable membrane. It doen't requires any additional energy to do this work. 


So, Osmosis is a Passive.


 


Active and passive transport processes are two ways molecules and other materials move in and out of cells and cross intracellular membranes.


1. Active transport is the movement of molecules or ions against a concentration gradient (from an area of lower to higher concentration), which does not ordinarily occur, so enzymes and energy are required.


2. Passive transport is the movement of molecules or ions from an area of higher to lower concentration. Passive transport occurs because of the entropy of the system, so additional energy isn't required for it to occur.



3. Active transport requires energy to proceed, while passive transport does not require the input of extra energy to occur.

Q:

Which of the following equations represents Photosynthesis?

A) 6CO2 + 6H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2 B) C6H12O6 + 6O2 -----> CO2 + 6H2O
C) CO2 + H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2 D) 6O2 + 6H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6CO2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 6CO2 + 6H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms activities.

 

Photosynthesis can be represented using a chemical equation.

 

The overall balanced equation is

 

              6CO2 +  6H2O   Sunlight    C6H12O6   +   6O2Source of Carbon & Oxygen  + Source of Electrons & Hydrogen + Energy that drives Photosynthesis             ----> Sugar + Gas produced by splitting water.

 

Where 

CO2 = carbon dioxide 

H2O = water

C6H12O6 = glucose 

O2 = oxygen.
