6 0

Diffusion occurs because of the movement of molecules from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration. This movement of molecules occurs due to a thermal motion. Diffusion normally occurs between two compartments having difference in concentration. In case of fluid it moves from the region of higher concentration to the region of concentration until a balance is reached. The process of diffusion is very important for the humans as well. The oxygen that humans breathe in gets diffused with the blood.

Explain how DNA replication differs in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

Sindrei [870]

In prokaryotic cells, there is only one point of origin, replication occurs in two opposing directions at the same time, and takes place in the cell cytoplasm. Eukaryotic cells on the other hand, have multiple points of origin, and use unidirectional replication within the nucleus of the cell.

3.Whenever the surfaces in contact tend to move or move with respect to each other, the force of friction comes into playRequire

fredd [130]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Friction occurs irrespective of the state of the matter.

Explanation:

Friction is the force that takes place when there are two different surfaces slide or moves across one another and causes a resistance between surfaces. The friction always takes place opposite direction to the other surface direction of moving.

Pushing a book on a table, pulling a heavy cart on road all are examples of friction. The friction that occurs in liquids and gases is called fluid friction. Thus, the friction takes place irrespective of the state of the matter.
