This would occur through mitosis.

Mitosis is the most common form of cell division in which a single cell divides to produce two new daughter cells that are identical to the parent. Mitosis occurs mainly for growth and to replace older cells. A skin cell which is a type of somatic cell duplicates (produces an exact copy of itself) by the process of mitosis.

Mitosis is the process of cell division that creates a new cell identical to the original. Somatic cells, such as muscles, hair and skin, undergo mitosis regularly in humans and other organisms. Thus, the answer is mitosis.

Which statement is true of both active transport and facilitated diffusion?

enyata [817]

The correct answer is option (D) The active transport and the facilitated diffusion both involve the proteins present in the cell membrane.

Facilitated diffusion transport the large and the charged molecules through the protein transport channels present in the cell membrane. In this case, the solute move from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration and it does not require energy.

Active transports takes place when the molecules move from a region of lower concentration to higher concentration via the membrane protein channels.

Both facilitated diffusion and active transport requires the proteins present in the cell membrane.
