The cell is taking in substances through membrane proteins, without any energy expenditure of its own. The substances naturally

follow their concentration gradient. However, they must go through the protein channels, because they are too large to squeeze through the cell membrane. This process is called

The right answer is facilitated diffusion.

Facilitated diffusion is a diffusion mechanism facilitated by membrane transporters. it's the spontaneous passage of molecules or ions (like the passive diffusion) through a biological membrane through transport molecules (unlike passive diffusion). This process does not consume energy (like the passive diffusion) and therefore does not involve active transportation.

Facilitated diffusion. because the protein channels must help the substance get into the cell based on fitting. It's important to regulating what comes in and goes out.

Answer:

Mendel's law of independent assortment

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel is a really important figure in genetics, his work on pea plants provided us with many of the fundamentals of genetics that we still have today!

Mendel proposed 3 laws:

1. The law of dominance - this law states that where there are two different alleles (heterozygous) the organism will always express the dominant trait over the recessive trait

2. The law of segregation - this law states that offspring will inherit one allele from each parent, because allele pairs separate in the process of meiosis, such that each gamete contains 1 allele of each trait. When the zygote is formed, it contains an allele from each parent.

3. The law of independent assortment - this law states that traits are independent from one another at the time of gamete formation. The genes are segregated separately from one another, as the presence of one does not impact the presence of another.

This example shows that all combinations of the height and color allele are possible, and therefore nicely demonstrates the law of independent assortment

How are traits inherited by offsring?
SOVA2 [1]
Answer:
a trait is a characteristic, such as color or size, that is inherited by an offspring from its parents. The genes that control a trait come in pairs, one gene from each parent. If a gene pair contains a dominant allele, then the offspring will show this dominant trait.

Place the 4 steps of biofilm formation, listed below, in the correct order.
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

1. Surface (substratum) is preconditioned by environment molecules.

4. Microbes attach and detach from the preconditioned surface.

2.Quorum sensing and the establishment of the extracellular matrix commences as microbes attach more stably.

3. Biofilm matures and some microorganisms escape to the plank-tonic state.

Explanation:

Biofilm is a process in which microorganism irreversibly attach and grow on the surface to produce extra cellular polymers that facilitate formation of matrix. The biofilm process takes three days for the formation after which thickness of plaque increases. There are 4 main steps in biofilm formation. Surface is preconditioned by environment molecules. The microbes attach the preconditioned surface. Establishment of extra cellular matrix and finally biofilm matures.
