Oxygen and carbon dioxide pass through the plasma membrane by _____. passive diffusion facilitated diffusion active transport

Biology
2 answers:

Answer:

The correct answer is option B, Diffusion

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide and oxygen diffuse across the semipermeable membrane due to the variation of concentration across the membrane (known as concentration gradient). Oxygen diffuses into the cell from outside because its concentration is high on the outer side of the cell wall. While carbon dioxide diffuses out of the cell, because its concentration is high on the inner side of cell membrane.  

Also, both carbon dioxide and oxygen are non polar and small sized molecules due to which they can be easily transported across the lipid membrane.

Which method(s) can be used to join double-stranded breaks in DNA? (choose all that apply)
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Option (a) and (d).

Explanation:

The breaks in DNA molecule may occur due to replication error and oxidizing agent. The double-stranded breaks in DNA can be corrected by Homologous end joining and non homologous end joining.

Homologous end joining is used to repair the DNA present in G2 nad S phases of the cell cycle. The homologous sequences of DNA is used to repair the DNA. Non homologous end joining occurs in the cell present at G0 and G1 phase of the cell cycle. The DNA broken ends are juxtaposed and later rejoin together by DNA ligase.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a) and (d).

Hi!

Rock pools are exactly what they sound like. They are rocky pools by the sea. They are usually found in the intertidal zone. During the occurrence of a high tide, they are filled with seawater. During low tide, they usually become/exist as separate pools.

Hope this helps, have a wonderful day/night!
