Facilitated diffusion. It is a passive transport mechanism in which carrier proteins shuttle molecules across the cell membrane without using the cell’s energy supplies. Instead, the energy is provide by the concentration gradient, which means that molecules are transported from higher to lower concentrations, into or out of the cell. The carrier proteins bind to glucose, which causes them to change shape and translocate the glucose from one side of the membrane to the other. Red blood cells use facilitated diffusion to absorb glucose.

C clouds
Clouds form when the invisible water vapor in the air condenses into visible water droplets or ice crystals
<h2>Xylem;phloem and cork</h2>
Explanation:
Wood is mainly known as secondary xylem found in trees
- Xylem is basically the vascular tissue which is responsible for the conduction of water and nutrients from the roots to shoots and leaves
- Secondary xylem is formed from secondary growth and is associated with lateral growth and grows from the vascular cambium
- Its cell walls are thickened by deposition of lignin which provides mechanical support to plants and consists of tracheids and vessels that are shorter and wider
- In large woody plants secondary xylem get differentiated into heartwood and sapwood
Bark is essentially made of phloem and cork
- Bark sole purpose is to provide protection to trees
- The inner bark is produced by vascular cambium which consists of secondary phloem whose innermost layer transports food from the leaves to rest of the plant
- The outer bark is a dead tissue which is the product of cork cambium
