In carrying out normal activities, cells use oxygen and produce carbon dioxide. The concentration of oxygen is higher in the blo

od than inside the cell, so oxygen moves into the cell. Similarly, carbon dioxide moves out of the cell into the blood because the concentration of carbon dioxide inside the cell is greater than the concentration outside the cell. How do the small molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide move through the cell membrane? A. active transport by carrier proteins B. active transport by endocytosis C. passive transport by osmosis D. passive transport by diffusion

<h2>Answer </h2>

Option D - Passive transport by diffusion

<u>Explanation </u>

The carbon dioxide moves out of the cell into the blood because the concentration of carbon dioxide inside the cell is greater than the concentration outside the cell. The small molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide move through the cell membrane by passive transport by diffusion. The transfer of particles beyond a membrane without the input of energy is known as passive transport. Diffusion is the diffusion of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration across the cell membrane.

DNA replication occurs during which phase of the eukaryotic cell cycle?
wariber [46]

In eukaryotic cells the DNA can be found in the nucleus mainly. so DNA replication takes place in the nucleus during the S phase of the cell cycle.

Also in eukaryotic cells there are mitochondria and chloroplasts (plants) and these have circular DNA and they also get replicated (according to their own mechanism).

Prokaryotic cells don't contain a nucleus. They do not contain DNA in the cytoplasm and thus the DNA replication will take place here.

I really hope this helps!

What is a organelle
bija089 [108]
<span>An organelle is a functional subunit enclosed by a membrane within a eukaryotic cell. The name "organelle" means little organ and the name comes from the analogy with organs: what an organ is to a body, an organelle is to a cell. So, the organelle is the organ of the cell. There are different types of organelles in cells, such as nucleus, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, chloroplasts, vacuoles, and they all have a different function. For example, the nucleus is the organelle which main function is control of cell activities. Mitochondria are organelles which main function is energy production. </span>

Which of the following is an example of genetic discrimination?
Rudiy27

Timothy does not get a promotion at work because he has cancer is an example of genetic discrimination.

Explanation:

Genetic discrimination is termed so when an employer or an insurance company treats indifferently an individual with gene mutation or heritable diseases.

The act of not giving promotion and using the genetic information for the reason by the employer is indifferent and termed genetic discrimination as in case of cancer where life expectancy and large insurance claim is the reason.

Insurance companies do not give benefits or insurance to potential people having or prone for having the mutation and heredity disease.

To help overcome this discrimination federal level laws have been implemented as Genetic information non discrimination act. It strictly prohibits the indifferent behaviour of the employers and insurance companies.
