Answer: The correct option is C.) away from the area where it is more concentrated.

A substance that moves across a cell membrane without using the cells energy tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

This is known as Passive transport. In this transport, substances move down the concentration gradient i.e from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. It is also called simple diffusion as no energy is required in this process.

C because this is passive transport and not using any energy. Passive transport is where a substance is moved from high concentration to low concentration.

A hypothesis that girls have better memory than boys
Tom [10]

Answer:

If a group made up of 50% boys and 50% girls is asked to read a passage, then the girls will remember more of what they read than the boys because girls have better memories than boys.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a statement that explains what you think will happen in an experiment and why.  It is framed as "if...then...because."  The "because" part should be based on research and not personal opinion.  A good hypothesis will be more than a single sentence, and will cite research on the subject.

A cardiac muscle cell is: Question 31 options: a voluntary muscle just like skeletal muscle. contracts spontaneously. is joined
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Two of the statements above are correct.

A cardiac muscle cell contracts spontaneously and is joined to other cardiac muscle cells by structures called intercalated discs.

Explanation:

Cardiomyocytes, the only ones responsible for the contractile function of the myocardium, are terminally differentiated cells that cease to proliferate almost immediately after birth. Cardiomyocytes are mononucleated cells, with the nucleus in a central position. These are linked together by the so-called intercalary discs, which appear as dark bands in histological preparations, and which are a set of junction complexes where desmosomes and adherent junctions can be found (here called fascia adherens). The intercalary discs are therefore the boundaries between cells.
