Facilitated diffusion is an example of passive transport.

Option: B

<u>Explanation: </u>

<em>The other name for Facilitated diffusion is carrier-mediated osmosis</em> is actually the movement of molecules across the ‘cell membrane’ without the energy input. In this process, the movement of molecules takes place through special transport proteins that are present in the plasma membrane by either receiving or releasing ions. The active transport of molecules amplifies the membrane potential by allowing ‘passive transport’ of particular ions like potassium through high-affinity channels.

Molecules that are present in the membranes of gram-negative bacteria and are the best known pamps are called ________.
miskamm [114]

Molecules that are present in the membranes of gram-negative bacteria and are the best-known pamps are called Bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPSs).

Bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are the primary outer surface membrane elements present in almost all Gram-negative bacteria and it act as extremely strong stimulators of the innate or natural immunity in the diverse eukaryotic species ranging from insects to humans.

Eukaryotes are the organisms whose cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. eukaryote, any cell or organism that possesses a clearly defined nucleus. The first eukaryotic cells was evolved about 2 billion years ago. In this Cells with nuclei surrounded by a nuclear envelope with nuclear pores.

How are the platypus’s bill and feet specially adapted for survival in their environment? (Site 2)
lapo4ka [179]
Platypus is an Australian mammal that lives in deciduous forests. Platypus's bill is adapted in order to allow platypus to travell and find its way in the river without using vision. This adaptation is achieved through special receptors that sense touch and electricity. Platypus's feet are webbed, enabling them to swim fast and efficiently and move easily on muddy surfaces.
