The right answer is d. sugar molecules move outside of the membrane.

The simple diffusion is the diffusion through the plasma membrane (in the direction of the strong concentrations towards the weak concentrations, until equilibrium concentrations on both sides of the membrane). In the case that we have, the most concentrated compartment in glucose (that is inside the cell) will let it escape and go to the extracellular compartments until reaching equal concentrations between the two compartments.

Two species of meadowlarks have different mating calls that lead to reproductive isolation. What type of isolation does this exa
77julia77 [94]
Hi there!

The example of the meadowlarks is an example of behavioral isolation. This is because the mating call is a behavior the birds exhibit. This helps the birds to find their correct mate because though the birds look similar, they are not able to produce offspring.

Hope this helps!! :)

Why do we have different time zones
swat32

As Earth rotates, different parts of Earth receive sunlight or darkness, giving us day and night. Since different parts of Earth enter and exit daylight at different times, we need different time zones. In the late 1800s, a group of scientists figured out a way to divide the world into different time zones.

Nutrients in the deep ocean come from dead marine organisms. <br>True<br>False​
Viktor [21]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The deep parts of an ocean receive minimal or no sunlight. Hence, the survival of phototropic organisms like plants and algae is impossible or minimal here. Hence, there is a very little diversity in deep oceans. The organisms living here have to feed on dead decaying matter or on each other for survival. Mostly, the organisms living here use dead organisms as food. No other food source is available here.

True or false the genotype of an organism constitutes its observable characteristics
iren2701 [21]
False

The genotype of an organism does not constitute its observable characteristics but rather its phenotype. A genotype of an organism is the genetic makeup of an organism while the phenotype is the visible characteristics.
It is, however, significant to understand that the phenotype of an organism is as a result of the interaction between the genotype and the environment.
