Answer:

Diffusion

Explanation:

The process by which substances move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration is called diffusion.

For example:

Substance moves across a cell membrane without using the cell's energy tends to move away from the area where it is more concentrated.

It is known as passive transport.

It is the process in which substance without using the cellular energy tend to move down the concentration gradient.

It is also known as simple diffusion.

When perfume bottle is open particles spread in air due to difference in concentration from bottle to out side environment.

While,

In case of active transport substance move against the concentration gradient i.e to wards the area of higher concentration.

This process require energy.

What would happen if another substance competed for the enzyme active site?
Lelu [443]
That's what is called competitive enzymatic regulation. If there are more of that substance than the enzyme substrate, then most of the enzyme, if not all depending on the substance's concentration, will be inhibited on its action. If there are more substrate then the competitive substance, the expected reaction for that enzyme will happen at an expected rate. If the ratio substrate:substance is 1:1 then the reaction enzyme-substrate is very slowed down.

For the second question, The answer is option B.<span> </span><span>Cell division has two checkpoints namely, G1 checkpoint and spindle assembly checkpoint. The checkpoint which determines if division has properly occurred is the G1 checkpoint. At this point, is a damage in the DNA is detected or the has not reach the optimum size, the cell is stopped in G1 and is not allowed to proceed to further process.</span>
