Answer:

Bulk flow

Explanation:

Generally when there is  mass movements of molecules of the fluids from a high pressure gradients to low pressure gradients; that is down the concentration gradients, the process is called Bulk flow. In relation to cells, it is  the exchange of material between cells  through the pores of the adjoining  cells. In xylem , water and minerals flow from high pressure roots to the leaves, and phloem transport food substances from the  leaves the sources at high pressure to other parts of the plants.

The capillary transport mechanisms involves the movements of fluids, ions across the fenestration of the capillaries due to  the hydostatic  pressure of the fluid from the high pressure to the low pressure cellular environments.This is common in the  glomerulus of the kidney, intestine, and some endocrine glands.

The single wall endothelial lining of  capillaries forms continuous wall which allows passage of ions and fluids while restricting movements of large molecules. Generally the high pressure  from the hydrostatic pressure forces these materials across the walls.

Simple diffusion  which follows concentration  gradient across membranes ensures distribution of substances across the walls for fast uptake by the cells.

The movement of Macromolecules  across capillary wall is called vesicular transport.

Thus Bulk flow is odd.

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

If the two organisms are heterozygous for the dominant trait.

Explanation:

For every trait, a diploid organism receives two forms of gene called ALLELE, from each parent. Allele is the variant form of a gene.

According to Mendel's law of dominance, for a particular trait, an allele is capable of masking the expression of another allele in a gene. The expressed allele is called the DOMINANT allele while the masked allele is called the RECESSIVE allele. Due to this, an organism can express a dominant trait even in a combined or heterozygous state i.e. different alleles.

When the two heterozygous organisms mate or are crossed, they undergo meiosis and their alleles are separated into GAMETES according to Mendel's law of segregation. For example; an organism with genotype (genetic make-up) Aa will produce gametes with A and a alleles.

Note that, a recessive trait can only be expressed in a homozygous state i.e. same allele. Hence, the two heterozygous organisms will produce gametes containing the recessive allele, which will likely combine to produce a recessive phenotype or trait.

What process recharges this molecules so that it can become ATP again
alexdok [17]
<span>By rebonding with another phosphate molecule through oxidative phosphorylation, it becomes recharged and the ADP to ATP process can be restarted. This allows for more cellular energy to be produced, and more metabolic actions to be undertaken. This is the major aspect of cell respiration.</span>
