Answer:b. Facilitated transport

Explanation:in the usual activities of the cell,it's cell membrane is responsible for the movement of substance in and out of the cell.

Such substances include nutrients,water, oxygen etc.

The plasma membrane select the substances that it allows into the cell thus it is said to be selectively permeable.

The plasma membrane of the cell has a phospholipid bilayer made up of cholesterol, proteins and glycoproteins.

The proteins on the membrane are useful for facilitated diffusion.

In this diffusion process,the proteins helps to carry large molecules across the cell membrane.such molecules includes glucose,amino acids etc.

In the process energy is not expended so it is a type of passive transport.

F means oxygen from plant goes into the atmosphere.

2. matter is conserved in this process because plants take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere for photosynthesis then produces oxygen into the atmosphere, animals then feed on plants and later the animal's faecal matter is released into the soil and even when animals die, microorganisms in the soil break I down into absorbable form for plants use. which makes matter conserved.

3. mater is in a circular state from atmosphere to plants to animals to soil then absorbed by plants to restart the process again.
