<span>d. neither of these will cross a plasma membrane.
Glucose cannot diffuse across a plasma membrane as it is polar. Since the question doesn't specify the type of diffusion, simple diffusion is assumed.
If you count facilitated diffusion, then A is the answer.</span>
Answer:
Option 3, of the abiotic factors found in their environment
Explanation:
The abiotic factors such as absence of sunlight and extremely cold temperature represents picture of an extreme habitat under an ice shelf in Antarctica.
The optimum temperature requirements of bacteria for its survival ranges from 10oC to 20oC. In case, if a bacteria lives in an environment where temperature is less than -5oC or higher than 50oC, then such habitats are considered to be “habitats with extremities” as special physiological mechanisms are required to maintain the homeostasis and survive.
Likewise absence of sunlight further adds to the extremities of the habitat.
Option 3, is correct
Answer:
Competition for food happens when there is a limited amount of food resources available. The members of a species that eat that food who are best adapted to access the food are more likely to reproduce and pass on their genes to the next generation.
For example, we have a bird feeder with a narrow opening for food. The small-headed birds can reach the food, the bigger-headed birds cannot. If this was the only food source for this area, then over time, there would be more smaller-headed birds than large-headed birds, due to the competition for food and success/lack of success.
D) a change in protein synthesis
A moving hang glider has kinetic energy, which converts to potential energy once the hang glider stops.
