Answer:
diffusion is process resulting from random motion of molecules by which there is a net flow of matter from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
Explanation:
A familiar example is the perfume of a flower that quickly permeates the still air of a room. ion diffusion across a semipermeable membrane.
The correct answer is: E) provide the defense for the CNS
Astrocytes are star-shaped cells found in central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) .Some of their functions include:
• Support of neurons by supporting endothelilal cell of blood–brain barrier,
• Provide nutrients to neurons
• Maintain ion balance and thus controlchemical environment around neurons
• Repair of injuries in the brain
• the secretion or absorption of neural transmitters…
The cells that provide the defense for the CNS are called microglia. Those cells are also glial cells, derived from macrophages and thus, part of active immune defense.
Point source means: the pollution that comes from a single point (examples)
Sewage pipes releasing sewage into a ditch
Smokestack style factory chimneys
Oil pipes
Pollution which is caused by rain fall or snow melting into the ground. As the runoff moves, it picks up and carries away natural and human made pollutants, Finally reaching a lake, river, ocean, groundwater.
Answer:
Simple diffusion is when the particles travel through the cell and facilitated diffusion is when the molecules travel through the cell.
Mitosis (also known as cellular division) is just copying of cells. So the answer would be 18.If the question were about meiosis (sexual division), then the answer would be 9, because that would make 4 daughter cells, each encompassing half the original number of chromosomes (18).
