what are the similarities and differences between facilitated diffusion and active transport by a protein pump

1 answer:

In facilitated diffusion, ions, sugars, and salts are transported across the membrane. In active transport, ions, sugars, and salts are also transported. The second similarity is that both facilitated diffusion and active transport use proteins as their means of transporting their materials to and from the cell.

Bone can be classified as a connective tissue because it contains an extracellular matrix that surrounds widely spaced cells. Tr

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

False. Bone can be classified as a connective tissue because it provides support and structure to the body.

Explanation:

Connective tissue is those tissues that fill spaces between organs and other tissues, and also provide support to the organism. It is characterized by the presence of different types of cells separated by intercellular material synthesized by them.

The bony tissue is the principal structural and supportive connective tissue that differs from the other connective tissues because its extracellular matrix is mineralized, which makes it possible to accomplish its support and protection function due to its rigidity and hardness. The mineral that deposits in the osteoid matrix is the calcium phosphate, composing hydroxyapatite crystals. The bony tissue is a storage site of calcium and phosphate, which are available for maintaining constant the calcium blood levels according to the individual physiological needs.
