Name and describe 3 ways objects can travel across a membrane. Include what types of objects (H2O, sugar, ect) are moving across
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Osmosis - water

Ions - diffusion

Large proteins - endocytosis

Explanation:

Ions and small molecules can cross the cell membrane by simple diffusion, where they move from a high concentration to a low concentration, down a concentration gradient.

Osmosis is the process whereby water travels across a semi-permeable membrane from a high concentration to a low concentration.

Larger cargo can cross the membrane through a process called endocytosis, where the membrane engulfs the particles and brings them inside the cell, encased in a vesicle.

Initially, the scientists are agreed on this phenomenon that all distinct species are evolved gradually from common ancestor. Today, the species which are different from each other just like hummingbirds, humans and whales are from the same ancestor but with the time passage genetic mutation occurs and at the end dissimilar organisms we can see in our environment/surroundings.
