The transport of specific particles through a membrane by channel proteins is known as facilitated diffusion.

Biology

This is true.

Facilitated diffusion is a process by which molecules are transported across the plasma membrane with the help of membrane proteins.

It is a type of passive transport in which no energy from the cell is required for the process because a concentration gradient  exists that allows movement of particles without expending cellular energy. 

 Materials diffuse across the cell membrane with the help of membrane proteins some of which are known as carrier proteins.

Membrane proteins are proteins that are attached to, or associated with the membrane of a cell or an organelle.

A single strand of DNA helix has the code CGCTAA. Which would be the complementary code on the other strand of the helix?
Yakvenalex [24]

The correct answer is option 4, that is, GCGATT.  

Complementary strand refers to either of the two chains, which forms a double helix of DNA, with corresponding positions on the two chains comprising of a pair of complementary bases. It is a section of one nucleic acid, which is bonded to another by an alignment of base pairs.  

In nature, complementarity refers to the base principle of DNA transcription and replication as it is a characteristic shared between the two RNA or DNA sequences, such that when they are arranged antiparallel to each other, the nucleotide bases at each position in the sequences will be complementary.

Drugs to reduce the risk of rejection are given to organ transplant patients because patients because the donated organ contains
leonid [27]

The answer is; cell surface receptors that are recognized as antigens by the recipient's immune system.

Therefore the organ is attacked as a foreign substance . This is why organ transplants are given by the closest family member to reduce the antigen variability that causes transplant rejection.  Tissue typing is done to ensure that the organ or tissue is as similar as possible to the tissues of the recipient.
