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.

The Clean Air Act, which was passed originally in 1963, and which has been amended since, with its last update being in the 1990´s, became the first time that the U.S government not only established federal funding for environmental issues, but also regulated environmental topics through EPA (Environmental Protection Agency, 1970) and considered the power that citizens could have to ensure the enforcement of the statutes and provisions considered in the Act. This consideration of citizen suits, is the most important  and relevant difference with earlier environmental laws.
