1- diffusion: It consists of the passage of the molecules of the solute, from the place of greatest to the place of lowest concentration, until establishing a balance. It is a slow process, except when the concentration gradient is very high or the distances covered are short.

2 - osmosis: Water moves freely through the membrane, always from the place with the lowest concentration of solute to the one with the highest concentration.

3 - active transport: In active transport, substances are transported with energy expenditure, which can occur from the lowest to the highest concentration (against the concentration gradient). This gradient can be chemical or electrical, as in the transport of ions.

4 - facilitated diffusion: Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport of substances across the cell membrane, which is supported by proteins. It occurs without expenditure of ATP, that is, without expenditure of energy.

5 - diffusion: It consists of transporting substances permeable to the membrane. These, in solution, can flow spontaneously from the inside of the cell or vice versa. This process occurs from a region with a higher concentration of particles to one with lower concentrations.

6 - active transport

7 - active transport

8 - exocytosis: process where the cell expels unnecessary substances from its interior resulting from its enzymatic processes.

Briefly explain how x-rays, CT/CAT scans, ultrasounds, and MRI are used to diagnose diseases.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

These techniques include x-rays, computed tomography (CT) scans, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These imaging tools let your doctor "see" inside your body to get a "picture" of your bones, organs, muscles, tendons, nerves, and cartilage. This is a way the doctor can determine if there are any abnormalities.

Explanation:

hope it helps :)

The image shows a magnified view of a leaf's surface with the stomata visible. What’s the significance of these structures in th
Deffense [45]

The correct answer is option (d) They allow the exchange of gases between cells in the leaf and the external environment.

Stomata are the tiny openings present in the epidermis (outer layer of cells) of the leaf. They have a pore which is guarded by the guard cells which controls the opening and closing of the stomata. Air enters and exits through the stomata.

The main funtion of stomata is to facilitate the gaseous exchange. The gas exchange that occurs when the stomata are open helps in the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is taken in from the atmosphere and oxygen is released as a by-product of photosynthesis. The glucose produced is converted into the starch and stored in the leaves.

Also, water vapour diffuses through the stomata into the atmosphere by a process called the transpiration.

Thus, stomata are the structures that are mainly involved in the gaseous exchange between the cells of the leaf and the atmosphere.
