Question

If the metabolism of a cell suddenly slowed down so that there was less cellular energy available, which role of the cell membrane would you expect to be most affected?

The active transport of ions across the membrane
The osmosis of water across the membrane
The facilitated diffusion of sugars
The passive diffusion of oxygen across the membrane

I think it's C

Answer 1

The active transport of ions across the membrane

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The correct option is A.
The active transport of ions across the cell membrane requires energy in form of ATP. Since there are less cellular energy available in a cell, the active transport of ions will be negatively affected. The other options are passive transport and they do not require energy, thus they will not be affected.
