Note that Facilitated diffusion , Active transport and Osmosis are three different ways of transporting substances across the cell surface membrane.
Facilitated diffusion is the movement of a substance from high to low concentration , similar to simple diffusion , but due to the complexity of the cell surface membrane , polar molecules and ions cannot just pass like that , so they pass through specific carrier and channel proteins in the cell surface membrane and so we call it facilitated diffusion.
For Active transport , it's the movement from low to high concentraion using energy from ATP
For Osmosis , it's totally different . You only name osmosis when its all about water . Its the net movement of water from high water potential to low water potential through partially permeable membrane . If you're doing AS , you'll be familiar with Endosmosis and Exosmosis.
We know that frequency of recombination is proportional with the distance between the genes on the chromosome. Therefore when the recombination rate is higher that means the distance between the genes on the chromosome is bigger. If the recombination rate is lower that means the genes are closer to each other on the chromosome. In this case the cross over rate is half the normal rate in the wild-type. That means that on the genetic map the distance between the two genes on the wild type will be twice bigger than the genes of the mutated Drosophila.
Proteins and phospholipids make up most of the membrane structure. The phospholipids make the basic bag, while the proteins are found around the holes and help move molecules in and out of the cell.
