Answer:
Water, carbon dioxide, and oxygen are among the few simple molecules that can cross the cell membrane by diffusion (or a type of diffusion known as osmosis ). Diffusion is one principle method of movement of substances within cells, as well as the method for essential small molecules to cross the cell membrane.
Transposable elements and short tandem repeats are different because short tandem repeats make up only a small percentage of a given genome while transposable elements often make up larger parts of a genome. So the correct option is C.
<h3>
What are transposable elements? </h3>
Transposable elements or transposons are a class of genetic elements. They can “jump” from one location to another, in a genome.
Even though they are called “jumping genes,” they have an integrated site in a genome and are maintained there. Also, most of them are eventually inactivated and can not move any longer.
Whereas Short tandem repeats or STRs are short repeats of DNA. They are also known as microsatellites or simple sequence repeats. They have a repetitive unit of 1-6 bp and form a series of 100 nucleotide lengths.
Therefore the correct option C.
