2 geological features of Florida state making it fragile is the Everglades and its bio-diverse nature.
Explanation:
The Florida state is one of three Everglades in the world to be marked as such due to its tendency of being in drought condition all the time due its draining capacity and location in its southernmost parts.
The other environmental condition which the state faces, is the bio-diverse nature of the state. It has endangered species population of cougar. It has been marked as the protected area for the panther species. Alligators too have been listed in the state for the endangered kind. Rest fills up the circuity of the state.
Facilitated diffusion is the diffusion of solutes through transport proteins in the plasma membrane. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport. Even though facilitated diffusion involves transport proteins, it is still passive transport because the solute is moving down the concentration gradient.

Answer:
a. movement can occur both upward and downward in the plant
Explanation:
The phloem loading causes the accumulation of sugars in the sieved elements generating a negative solute potential (quedas), with a drop in water potential (ψw), so water enters the sieved elements increasing the turgor pressure (ψp). With the discharge of phloem in the drain occurs lower concentration of sugars in the screened elements, increases the solute potential, becoming positive, thus the phloem water potential increases and thus the water leaves the conducting vessel. In the specific case of sugar movement in the phloem, it can be stated that this movement can occur both up and down in the plant.
The digestive system breaks down food molecules into their component parts, which are then absorbed by the circulatory system in the small intestine and circulated throughout the body. The digestive system diffuses nutrients into the capillaries and then through the circulatory system. The small intestine has folds called villi, and the villi contain tiny projections called microvilli. The microvilli absorb nutrients from digested food and transport it directly into the bloodstream where it can be used. Without the circulatory system, the body would not be able to absorb nutrients from the food we eat.
The circulatory system supplies the organs with blood and oxygen to keep them alive. Oxygen travels throughout the body including the digestive system. Like any organ, the digestive system requires more oxygen when metabolically active, for example after a meal. In addition, the digestive system plays a role in the acid-base balance in the body. Since H+ + HC03- exchanges with H20 and C02 within the intestine there is a production of carbon dioxide from the gut to the lungs.
The bloodstream carries nutrients that are broken by the digestive system from the food you eat. The circulatory system provides nutrients and oxygen to the organs of the digestive system.
