Answer: diffusion

Explanation:

Diffusion is the over all movement of molecules from one region where it is in high concentration to another another region where it is in lower concentration.

This movement continues until the concentration of both regions are equal. Smaller non polar molecules are able to diffuse through the lipid bilayer of the membrane .

Movement through the membrane is dependent on the concentration gradient, that is the difference in concentration between the two areas.

It is also dependent on the size of the molecule

Which best defines a diploid cell during meiosis?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
Diploid cells. Meiosis is the process of cell division by which involving gametes. Cell division is just the same for sperm and egg cells, but they have distinguishable descriptions and labels in the process. Spermatogenesis is for the males’ sperm cells and oogenesis is the process for females’ egg cells. The cell division of meiosis involves the two phases, respectively meiosis I and meiosis II. Meiosis I like mitosis is the cell division that produces diploid cells. These diploid cells are cells that contain a complete pair of chromosomes which is 46. The result is two diploid cells after the first meiosis. To provide clear explanation, in contrast haploid cells only contain 23 chromosomes and are created after meiosis II which is 4 in number.
