Answer:

B)Facilitated diffusion is a form of active transport. Regular diffusion is a form of passive transport is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Regular diffusion is considered as passive transport because it does not require energy to cross the cell membrane.

In regular diffusion, solutes move along the concentration gradient.

facilitated diffusion is considered as active transport because it requires energy to transport the molecules across the cell membrane.

It is a type of facilitated transport where solutes move from a high concentration to low concentration with the help of carrier protein.

The _____ is the main means for transmitting messages between the brain and the body.
kiruha [24]

The correct answer is d. spinal cord.

Spinal cord is a bundle of neurons which starts from the brain and runs down the entire length of the back of the body. The spinal cord acts as a main means to transmit the messages between the brain and the body.

Sensory or efferent neurons carry the information from the perimeter of the body and pass to the central nervous system whereas the motor or efferent neurons act as a communication channel and carry the information from the nervous system to various glands and muscles.

Which are replicated during interphase? sister chromatids chromosomes centromeres nuclei
sweet [91]

The right answser is Chromosomes.

After DNA replication during cell cycle interphase, the chromosomes are composed of two identical chromatids attached at the centromere. Each chromatide is formed of a molecule of DNA (the nucleofilament) associated with proteins, the histones, around which it winds to form nucleosomes. At the ends of each chromatid are telomeres, consisting of repetitive DNA sequences that provide protection for chromosomal endings. Telomeres and centromere do not encode genetic information, it is non-coding DNA.
