Answer:

Diffusion

Explanation:

The concept of diffusion states that molecules like to travel from areas of high concentration to low concentration.

Let's think about an example. Let's say you are having a party at your house and in one room there is 100 people and in the other room connected to it, there is only 10 people. What do you think is going to happen as time passes? Right, people are going to move to the room where there is less people so as to equally disperse themselves across the area. The same thing happens within our body with ions and gases.

Ions can diffuse into or out of cells based off their concentration gradients. If there are too many ions on one side, they will simply move to the other side. There are different types of diffusion. Passive diffusion and facilitated diffusion, but those are for a different conversation.

How is dna the basic of life?
Allushta [10]


DNA is considered the molecule of life because it contains the instructions that ensure the continuity of life. Employment of DNA to code for protein is the basis of all life on earth. 

In all living things, inherited DNA  is used to code for amino acids  which when joined or linked together in a deliberate specific  manner form polypeptides which make up proteins. These proteins are responsible for  structure and function of cells. 

For example DNA provides information to make  four polypeptide (two beta and two alpha ) chains  which make up hemoglobin, the protein that functions as the oxygen carrier in red blood cells. In summary,

DNA → protein →  trait, and that relationship is the physical basis of life.

The thin filaments and thick filaments and their associated proteins are the key functional components of the sarcomere. it is i
kkurt [141]

Muscle is composed of small units known as myofibril which itself composed of cylindrical bundles of thread like filaments; thick filament and thin filament known as myosin and actin respectively.

These filaments make up a myofibril which is organized into a chain of contractile units called sarcomeres. . There are two more proteins known as titin and nebulin which also contribute to the structure of sarcomere.

The function of the muscle is to contract and these filaments play a major role in it
