Active and passive transport are biological processes that move oxygen‚ water and nutrients into cells and remove waste products. Active transport requires chemical energy because it is the movement of biochemicals from areas of lower concentration to areas of higher concentration. On the other hand‚ passive trasport moves biochemicals from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration; so it does not require energy.

trips travelled through the use of transport in the decade 1995 to 2005. This has been the case as vehicles such as cars have become more affordable and convenient to use in terms of their mobility. * In total around 159.08 billion Euros were spent by UK households on transport in 2005 * 51% of total expenditure in 2005 was on transport. There has been a prediction that by 2025 that there will be an extra 4 million trips made every day by a form of transport. * 15% of final household expenditure

Paper Electron diffraction through a graphite film. Mark Raskin Skidmore College (11/14/14) Abstract: In this paper‚ the wave-like properties of electrons are discussed. We are trying to measure the inter-atomic spacing (d) between the graphite atoms‚ which we are accelerating electrons through. As the electrons pass through the graphite‚ an interference pattern emerges on the screen in front of the gun. The interference pattern shows up as a circle within a circle‚ each of which represents

Cardiac Cycle The cardiac cycle describes the coordinated and rhythmic series of muscular contractions associated with the normal heart beat. The cardiac cycle can be subdivided into two major phases‚ the systolic phase and the diastolic phase. Systole occurs when the ventricles of the heart contract. Accordingly‚ systole results in the highest pressures within the systemic and pulmonary circulatory systems. Diastole is the period between ventricular contractions when the right and left ventricles

Urban transport policy in Singapore is becoming more difficult to handle. In the early 1970s Singapore faced traffic chaos‚ a failing bus system‚ little money for infrastructure and acute awareness of space limitations. The answer was a hard-headed “bargain” that offered steady improvements in space-efficient public transport at the price of making ownership of space-wasting cars unattainable for most. This has been widely seen as a success However‚ both sides of this bargain are under growing

TASK 3 COMPONENTS OF BLOOD AND TRANSPORT OF OXYGEN Blood components are red cells‚ white cells‚ platelets and plasma. These can be put to different uses. RED BLOOD CELLS Red blood cell also known as erythrocytes make up 45% of blood volume lacks nucleus and contains the oxygen-carrying protein haemoglobin‚ which is a pigment that gives whole blood its red colour. Erythrocytes are produced inside of red bone marrow. Its main function is to distribute oxygen to body tissue‚ and carry waste

Cost‚ convenience and environmental advantages of using public transportation. Many people who are looking for a way to save money can look no further than where they sit every day. People who live in rural or suburban areas often have the option of public transportation‚ at least for the daily commute to work. There are many advantages to using public transportation. First is cost. If you compare the cost of gas‚ parking and auto maintenance to the cost of a bus or train pass‚ you’ll find
