Traffic Congestion Traffic congestion is a condition on road networks that occurs as use increases‚ and is characterized by slower speeds‚ longer trip times‚ and increased vehicular queuing. The most common example is the physical use of roads by vehicles. When the traffic demand is great enough that the interaction between vehicles slows the speed of the traffic stream‚ this will results in some congestion. As demand approaches the capacity of a road (or of the intersections along the road)‚

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.

Electron Transport Chain The first step in the electron transport chain process is for the NADH2 produced during glycolysis‚ the intermediate step‚ and the citric acid cycle to be attracted to Complex I (FMN ·FeS)due to its high affinity for NADH2. This attraction pulls NADH2 to Complex I (NAD dehydrogenase) and the two electrons from H2 are pulled off by the FeS (ferrous sulfate) leaving two H+ ions and NAD+. These molecules repel each other and this results in the NAD+ being recycled

Oxygen Exchange and Transport Oxygen exchange or respiration takes place at a respiratory surface; a boundary between the external environment and the interior of the body. Gas exchange is the process by which oxygen and carbon dioxide (the respiratory gases) move in opposite directions across an organism’s respiratory membranes‚ between the air or water of the external environment and the body fluids of the internal environment. Oxygen is needed by cells to extract energy from organic molecules
