<span>The plasma membrane is both a barrier and gateway between the cytoplasm and ECF. It is selectively permeable—it allows some things through, such as nutrients and wastes, but usually prevents other things, such as proteins and phosphates, from entering or leaving the cell.</span><span>The methods of moving substances through the membrane can be classified in two overlapping ways: as passive or active mechanisms and as carrier-mediated or not. Passive mechanisms require no energy (ATP) expenditure by the cell. In most cases, the random molecular motion of the particles themselves provides the necessary energy. Passive mechanisms include filtration, diffusion, and osmosis. Active mechanisms, however, consume ATP. These include active transport and vesicular transport. Carrier-mediated mechanisms use a membrane protein to transport substances from one side of the membrane to the other. We will first consider the mechanisms that are not carrier-mediated (filtration, simple diffusion, and osmosis) and then the carrier-mediated mechanisms (facilitated diffusion and active transport).</span>

Answer:

Myopia is a phenotype that results from interactions between genetic factors and the environment

Explanation:

A quantitative trait is a polygenic trait that depends on the cumulative effects of many genes and the environment. Some examples of quantitative traits include weight and height. Myopia is a quantitative trait whose phenotype depends on the combined action of different genes and the environment. It has been shown that genetics plays a central role in this trait (myopia), it is for that reason that myopic parents are more likely to have myopic children. However, there also are environmental factors (e.g., diet) which increase the risk to suffer myopia.

(ii) Fish use their gills as a gas exchange surface.

maks197457 [2]

Exchange of gases in fish is very efficient because of: the large surface area of the gills. the large surface area of the blood capillaries in each gill filament. the short distance required for diffusion – the outer layer of the gill filaments and the capillary walls are just one cell thick.
