Mirror neurons fire demonstrates the ability of primates to empathize with another organism.

Mirror neurons are a class of neurons that modulate their activity both when an individual executes a specific motor act and when they observe the same or similar act performed by another individual.

Recent studies have shown that the mirror neurons have been hailed as a cornerstone of human empathy, language, and other vital processes.

These neurons are initially found as motor command neurons present in the frontal lobes of the brain and the prefrontal areas of the brain.

These are neurons which fire when a person moves and these are regular motor command neurons, orchestrating a sequence of muscles that allow the person to move something or do some other action.

A subset of these neurons also fire when that person simply watches another person move and do exactly the same action. So these neurons are performing a virtual reality simulation in the brain.

Another example of this is phantom limb.

The transport of specific particles through a membrane by channel proteins is known as facilitated diffusion.
Anton [14]

This is true.

Facilitated diffusion is a process by which molecules are transported across the plasma membrane with the help of membrane proteins.

It is a type of passive transport in which no energy from the cell is required for the process because a concentration gradient  exists that allows movement of particles without expending cellular energy. 

 Materials diffuse across the cell membrane with the help of membrane proteins some of which are known as carrier proteins.

Membrane proteins are proteins that are attached to, or associated with the membrane of a cell or an organelle.

Imagine for a moment that you are a chromosome. Sometimes your life as a chromosome goes very smoothly. You’re copied, you go th
Ad libitum [116K]
This would entirely depend as to what does the word simple mean here. The definition of a simple life to a chromosome might not be the same to another chromosome. So when things don't follow the standard or expected processes, of course it wouldn't be the usual thing. That moment would leave an impression, a mark, on the life of the chromosome. But then, that would not be the case for long since it would be the new process starting from that moment or it would just revert to the usual way. Crossing over and mutations are kind of fun and at the same time boring, sometimes even sad. Of course, you need to leave those friends that you have made and then go to another stranger's lands and repeat the process all over again. What makes it fun though are the interactions that happen when making new friends. A lot of exchanges happen and it is all a give and take kind of relationship. Mutations, on the other hand, are kind of scary since you become somewhat deviant from the rest. You catch attention, sometimes questioned by the authorities during cross-overs and so on. The nice ring to it is that it inspires others to mutate, too, which is kind of fulfilling and satisfying knowing that you were the reason for their change.
