Facilitated diffusion is the process by which molecules move across the plasma membrane with the aid of membrane proteins like channels and carriers. These molecules move down a concentration gradient, which gives them the potential to diffuse into (or out of) the cell.

Passive transport is a subset of facilitated diffusion. Because the solution is travelling down the concentration gradient, assisted diffusion is still passive transport even when it incorporates transport proteins. The cell membrane can easily be traversed by small, nonpolar substances.image outcome.A case of enhanced diffusion is glucose transfer. The lipid bilayer of the membrane prevents glucose from passing through since it is a big, polar molecule. In order to pass through, it requires carriers known as glucose transporters.

pochemuha
Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring).

Do pollen grains have the same number of chromosomes as a regular plant cell?
finlep [7]

The pollen grain is actually the male gametophyte generation of seed plants. Inside the anther, pollen mother cells divide by meiosis to form pollen grains whose nuclei contain half the number of chromosomes characteristic of the parent plant.

Describe two pathways the student can use to show how a metamorphic rock
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

In order for a metamorphic rock to become a sedimentary rock, the rock must undergo erosion. Once the rock has eroded, it will produce rock fragments or sediments which accumulate to form a sedimentary rock. ... In turn, when igneous and sedimentary rocks are exposed to heat and pressure, the rocks become metamorphic.
