Answer : The correct option is, (C) a carbon chain with a carbonyl group bonded to one end.

Explanation :

An aldehyde is an organic compound which contain a functional group with (-CHO) i.e R-CHO

R-CHO functional group consists of a carbonyl center that means a carbon which is double-bonded to the oxygen. The carbon of this carbonyl group bonded with the hydrogen to one end and a carbon chain, (R) to another end.

Some examples of an aldehydes are formaldehyde $(HCHO)$ , acetaldehyde $(CH_3CHO)$

The difference between simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion is that facilitated diffusion

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Simple and facilitated diffusion are both similar types of phenomenon where the substances are moved from a region of high concentration to lower concentration across a semi-permeable membrane.

The main difference between them is that the facilitated diffusion requires a special type of protein or carrier molecules in order to transport the substances whereas simple diffusion does not require such molecules. The rate of flow of these substances is high in the facilitated diffusion in comparison to the simple diffusion.
