Facilitated diffusion is the type of transport that occurs when membrane proteins bind to a molecule on one side of the cell membrane and then releases it on another side. An integral membrane protein provides continuous protein lined pathway through bilayer. There are two classes of proteins transport membrane one which carries specific molecules across and two is channel proteins which form narrow pore where ions can pass.

 Channel proteins also carry out passive transport where ions level spontaneously down their gradients membranes which transport proteins are important pharmacologically with two reasons. One is some drugs exploit endogenous membrane transport process to enter or exit cells. Two membrane transport proteins are major drug targets.

Facilitated diffusion or facilitated transport is also known as passive-mediated transport is the movement of molecules or ions across a biological membrane through transmembrane integral proteins. This process does not require chemical energy from ATP as such molecules and ions use the movement of gradient concentration for diffusion.

Answer:

1. Obtain two identical containers and dry sand.

2. Shape equal amounts of sand into a  "slope on the side of"  each container.

3. Spray water on the sand in one container. The sprayed water represents "rainfall" .

4. In the other container,  "place ice cubes to melt on the sand. This represents snow or glaciers." .

5. Observe and record the changes in the sand.

6. Analyze differences between the two containers.

Sedaia [141]
The flooding of half part of the forest have successful separate the population of frogs in that ecosystem into two different set of frogs. This is an example of allopatric speciation, that is, the population become separated as a result of geographical barrier. This separation will make the two set of frog population to become new species. On the long run, the two species may become unable to relate sexually.

The genetic condition of an organism that has two identical alleles for a given trait.
NikAS [45]

"An organism in which the two copies of the gene are identical — that is, have the same allele — is called homozygous for that gene. An organism which has two different alleles of the gene is called heterozygous."
