When the concentration gradient of such molecules is high on the either the cytoplasmic side or the extracellular side of the cell. When the concentration gradient is high it flows freely through the cell membrane to the other side without expanding energy.

The paramecium has two nuclei, a big and small one. The big one operates as the director of the cell's activities, rather like a little brain. The smaller one is used for reproduction. The paramecium splits in half (fission) just as the ameba does. First the smaller nucleus splits in half and each half goes to either end of the paramecium. Then the bigger nucleus splits and the whole paramecium splits. Occasionally two paramecium exchange material and form a new paramecium. This is called conjugation. 

<span>Conjugation in Paramecia occurs in the following way: </span>

<span>a). The formation of ciliary contacts. </span>
<span>b). Local loss of cilia and formation of narrow contacts between anterioventral somatic cell membranes </span>
<span>c). Formation of small cytoplasmic bridges (which allow for the exchange of molecular components only). </span>
<span>d). Their enlargement enables the cells to exchange micronuclei. </span>

<span>Bacteria exchange plasmid material and the Paramecia exchange micronuclei.

Good luck to Steve! How is it in Neptune? XD</span>

In what way are the humerus and the femur similar?
marta [7]

Answer:

D.

Both the femur and humerus bone have what's called 'spongy bone' inside them and hollow spaces full of yellow and red bone marrow. Additionally, both bones do not attach to the axial skeleton but rather attach to the pelvic or hip bones; while they are both strong bones, they are not made of only compact bone but are made of 'spongy bone' inside them. Lastly, they do not protect any organs but rather allow for movement. D, They both have hollow spaces filled with bone-generating cells, is the best answer in this case
