<span>An oceanographer would be most likely to study how whales are affected by pollution. An Oceanographer is a scientist that studies all aspects,physical and biological that pertain to the ocean. The topic of whales and pollution can fit under the study of ocean ecosystem dynamics which falls under the large umbrella of oceanography.</span>
Simple diffusion is the process by which a substance moves across a cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Substances that move by simple diffusion are able to diffuse directly across the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane. These substances are generally small and neutral, as large or charged particles cannot cross the phospholipid bilayer. Some examples of molecules that move by simple diffusion are carbon dioxide and oxygen.
Facilitated diffusion is the process by which a substance moves across a cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration with the aid of a membrane protein. Substances that move by facilitated diffusion are not able to diffuse directly across the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane. These substances are generally large and/or charged. They therefore travel through a protein channel in the cell membrane along their concentration gradient. Some examples of substances that can move by facilitated diffusion are glucose, sodium ions and chloride ions.
The similarities between facilitated diffusion and simple diffusion are:
They both involve the movement of a substance across a cell membrane along its concentration gradient (from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration).
They are both examples of passive transport, as neither requires energy from the cell to move the substance across the membrane.
The exposure of certain types of radiation
I can't answer 1 but 2=First, make sure you weather proof the house, than go from there and try anything you think is necessary in this situation.
Tendons :may also attach muscles to structures such as the eyeball. A tendon serves to move the bone or structure. A ligament: is a fibrous connective tissue which attaches bone to bone, and usually serves to hold structures together and keep them stable.
