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.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

Regulation of intake is governed by thirst receptors that pick up signals of dehydration and return the body to a rehydrated state.

Explanation:

The state of hydration in someone's body is given by the plasma osmolarity values (the ratio of solutes to water in blood plasma). After regular activities that involve the loss of water, such as urination and sweating, happen, the blood begins to concentrate and the osmoreceptors located in the hypothalamus are triggered to generate a response that leads to water intake.
