When the cell excretes sodium from within, against the natural tendency of matter, it is performing active transport.

Active transport is the movement of substances across a membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration against its concentration gradient or other impeding factor. When the cell excretes or transports something against its concentration gradient, active transport is required. Active transport uses either energy or electrochemical gradient.

balu736 [363]

The correct answer is (b) Levees prevent rivers from flooding their banks.

Levees are formed when water pushes the sediments to the side of a river. They serve as a natural barrier and prevents flood. This is very beneficial in terms of human settlement. Levees can be natural or artificial. They prevent water from going into the areas where there is a human settlement (bank of river). They prevent the rivers from flooding cities in a storm surge. If levees are broken the result can be disastrous for the surrounding area.
