<h2>Answer:</h2>
The two important uses of biotechnology is the gene therapy and Genetic engineering.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
- Gene therapy is the manipulation of genes in the genetic make up of an individual to eradicate the inheritable genetic disorders.
- The second use is the genetic engineering. Which is the genetic changes of an organism or micro organism to produce a desirable product.
- For example the transfer of human gene into bacteria for the production of insulin.
- Biotechnology is also used in the diagnostic techniques of genetic disorders.
Mitochondria mediate metabolic reactions, and in any reaction energy is transformed; some is lost as heat.
Answer:
facilitated diffusion
Explanation:
In facilitated diffusion, certain transport proteins of membranes (channels and carriers) serve in transport of the substances across the membrane. The movement of the amino acid occurs down the concentration gradient only. In facilitated diffusion, transport of substances occurs from the region of their higher concentration to that of the lower concentration. It is a passive process. The addition of some other amino acid slows down the transport of the first amino acid due to the saturation effect. All the transport proteins that facilitate the diffusion of amino acids across the membrane become occupied. This slows down the transport of the amino acid.
