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.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer: parasympathetic; at rest

Explanation: The parasympathetic nervous system branch of the autonomic nervous system is largely responsible for the relaxation of the body especially at rest where it undoes the activities of the sympathetic branch by decreasing respiration, heart rate and then increasing the body's digestion rate. As such, this branch is also responsible for digestion response in a relaxed, resting, or feeding states. The role therefore of the parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system mediates control of organ processes when the body is essentially at rest.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer: Primary producers

Phytoplankton are microscopic marine organisms. These are considered under plants, as they are capable of synthesizing their own food by the process of photosynthesis. Examples includes cynobacteria, dinoflagellates and diatoms. These are abundantly present in marine ecosystem. They are consumed by many marine animals such as fishes and marine mammals.Therefore, they are included in the primary producer trophic level in an ocean ecosystem.
