Answers:

1. Facilitated diffusion: the process by which some molecules that are not able to pass directly through a cell membrane are able to enter the cell with the aid of transport proteins.

2. Osmosis: the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane.

3. Diffusion: the spreading out of molecules across a cell membrane until to they are equally concentrated.

Step-by-step explanation:

Diffusion is the spontaneous movement of molecules across a membrane from an area of high concentration to one of low concentration gradient.

Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to one of high solute concentration.

Facilitated transport occurs when molecules cannot diffuse directly through a cell membrane but can diffuse down a concentration gradient through transport channels in the membrane.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is 327.78.

Explanation:

A mortality rate refers to the determination of the rate of the occurrences of deaths in a given population in the course of a particular time period. The formula for finding the mortality rate is:  

Deaths taking place in a given time duration / the size of the populace among which the deaths have taken place × 10ⁿ

The given population of the country is 250 million

The number of individuals died due to a certain disease is 819450

Thus, the mortality rate per 100000 can be calculated as:  

819450 / 250000000 × 100000 = 327.78 deaths per 100,000 people.
