What does the process of diffusion do for the cell

Biology
1 answer:
dybincka [34]3 years ago
3 0

Diffusion is important to the cell because it is the process by which useful molecules enter the cell and waste products removed from the cell.

Without diffusion, cells and tissues of the body can not get important nutrients and gases for survival and would die.

An example is the eye. The eyes lack a great  number of blood vessels (which carry oxygen that diffuses into cells) and must have an extra supply of oxygen. The atmosphere provides the extra needed oxygen which is taken up into the cells of the eye by diffusing through the cornea and thus the eye is kept functioning. If this does not happen , the eye would dry out.

<u>Evolution is sometimes a controversial:</u>

Evolution is the most scientific explanation about how the life forms of earth originated and turned into the form that we see today.

I don’t think there should be a controversy because there is no other explanation that proves to be more logical than the theory of evolution. Evolution is a theory that has several supporting proofs and the theory itself was formed after several years of detailed study and observation.

I don’t think alternatives to evolution should be taught at schools. Alternative theories to evolution are based on various religious beliefs which lack a scientific basis.

Schools should be a place that enables students to do productive scientific thinking and teaching alternatives to evolution wouldn’t be a good idea.
