Molecules are defined as the smallest particles of a chemical compound or an element, and are made up of atoms. Cells are made up of semi permiable membranes that only allow selected materials to move in or out of the cell, therefore due to the big size of molecules compared to atoms the membrane doesn't allow their passage in the cell. Therefore the cell doesn't allow most molecules to diffuse passively to the cell. Secondly, molecules that can enter the cell requires specific carriers carriers that will enable entry of small molecules in the cell.

Edwin Hubble used the Doppler effect to determine that the universe is expanding. After years of scientific research and observation of different celestial bodies through a telescope, Hubble found that the light from distant galaxies was shifted towards the red end of the spectrum. This red shift indicates that stars are moving away from us and from each other. This phenomenon is called the 'expansion of the universe', also known as the big band theory.

The main purpose of wildlife (movement) corridors is to
Kryger [21]
I believe the main purpose of wildlife (movement) corridors is to connect two otherwise isolated populations. Wildlife corridors are links of wildlife habitat that joins tow or more larger areas of similar wildlife habitat. They are very critical for the maintenance of ecological processes such as allowing the movement of animals and the continuation of viable populations.
