Answer: hemangioma

Explanation:

A hemangioma is a tumor like outgrowth structure. It appears like a rubbery bump. It consists of extra dilated blood vessels inside the bump. This can be seen during first or second week after birth thus can be considered as congenital.

A hemangioma always appear superficially on any part of the body including the face, chest, scalp and back.

Answer:

Hemangioma

Explanation:

Hemangioma usually refers to a non-cancerous type of tumor that occurs due to the abnormal growth of blood vessels. It can occur in any parts of the body, but they very are mostly present in the neck and he face portion. They can present right from the time of birth, but they usually develop in the body of the babies within the first few months after the birth of a baby.

It generally occurs in two types, namely-

  • Capillary hemangiomas- It occurs in the outer skin layers
  • Cavernous hemangiomas- It occurs in the deeper skin layers, and also mostly near and around the eye.

Active transport and facilitied diffusion relation
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Both facilitated diffusion and active transport are selective processes. Only selective molecules are allowed to cross the membrane. They utilize carrier proteins to move across the membrane.

Explanation:

Diffusion is the process by which molecules move across a membrane respective of the concentration gradient. The plasma membrane is a <em>selectively permeable membrane</em> which allows specific molecules to move across the concentration gradient.  

Molecules migrate from a region of higher concentration to a lower concentration in case of diffusion. It can be classified into simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion. These are examples of <em>passive transport</em>.

In facilitated diffusion molecules move across the concentration gradient with the help of <em>carrier proteins or channel proteins</em>. The carrier proteins bind to the molecule which has to be transported and change conformation to allow it to cross the membrane. For example glucose molecule is carried across through <em>GLUT transporter</em>. <em>Channel proteins</em> open a channel inside the membrane and molecules get transported across the gradient.

Active transport carries molecules against the concentration gradient with the assist of energy. ATP hydrolysis is utilized to generate energy. As a result of active transport, the molecules are aggregated on one side of the membrane.
