The intestinal flora are the components of the gastrointestinal system that can synthesize certain vitamins. 
Intestinal bacteria synthesizes vitamins such as biotin, vitamin B12, folic acid and thiamine. In addition it also performs other functions such as fermenting indigestible carbohydrates to short chain fatty acids such as propionate, butyrate and acetate.

Which two factors of a molecule determine whether or not it can cross the membrane? A. Color and weight B. Shape and texture C.
myrzilka [38]
D. Polarity and size. 
<span>The size, polarity, and charge of a substance will determine whether or not the substance can cross the cell membrane by diffusion. The cholesterol was an example of a lipid, and is highly soluble in the nonpolar environment of the lipid bilayer. You saw, in the animation above, the cholesterol freely passing into the hydrophobic environment of the membrane. Cholesterol distributes freely in the membrane and then some fraction will dissolve in the aqueous environment of the cytoplasm. Water, on the other hand, while polar, is small enough to cross the membrane at a slow rate. Note that specialized transport proteins in certain cell membranes can provide a channel for the water, greatly increasing its rate of crossing the membrane. The lipid bilayer is much less permeable to the ion, because of its charge and larger size. As a general rule, charged molecules are much less permeable to the lipid bilayer.</span>

Which of the following statements is true for all types of passive transport? Group of answer choices Ions never cross the plasm
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The concentration gradient is the driving force.

Explanation:

Passive transport of substance occurs when they are moved from the region of their higher concentration to that of their lower concentration. The concentration gradient is the difference in the concentration of substances between two regions or across the membrane. The concentration gradient of substances drives their passive movement. The passive movement of substances does not use metabolic energy.  Simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion are two examples of this transport.
