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.

1. homeostasis
2. negative feedback loop
3. the hypothalamus
4. the body’s optimal temperature, which is 37 degrees C, or 98.6 F
5. humans are endothermic, which means they don’t completely rely on their environment for heat, unlike ectothermic organisms such as reptiles. the diagram shows that the brain is in control of the body’s temperature, and that the body can raise its own temperature in its blood.
or something like that, hope this helped

Why do volcanoes occur most often near plate tectonics?
dem82 [27]
Diverging plate boundaries, earthquakes occur as the plates pull away from each other. Volcanoes also form as magma rises upward from the underlying mantle along the gap between the two plates. We almost never see these volcanoes, because most of them are located on the sea floor.
