Answer:
a animal that eats plants is a herbivore
<span>Eyes are sensitive to light and when light falls on them, they transmit electrical signals to the brain. The lens in the eye focuses light falling on it, on to the retina. Depeding on the amount of light and distance of objects from the eyes, the lens changes shape to allow focus on objects at varying distances and this is called accommodation.</span>
The reason as to why fungi fossils seem so rare is that they are usually microscopic and often difficult or impossible to identify.
Not much information on fungi fossils has been documented. This could be because fungi fruiting bodies consist of soft, fleshy and easily degradable tissues which due to their poor integrity do not keep or preserve as well as animal tissue.
Even when available, it takes a trained eye to recognize fungal fossils. Not many people have the training and expertise to recognize the fossils.
Answer:
<u>d. Transport proteins within the membrane serve as a tunnel for molecules to enter the cell.
</u>
<u />
Explanation:
Solutes are typically moved across the cell through either passive or active transport. The cells, surrounded by a bilipid layer or plasma membrane is amphiphlic- its polar, hydrophilic lipid heads face outwards, while their non-polar hydrophobic lipid tails face inwards towards each other.
While lipid-soluble molecules move across the layer easily, it is also difficult for charged and also large molecules to move across its surface, into the cell. Transmembrane channels, <u>embedded within the membrane</u>, help to maintain selective permeability as transport proteins, pores and gated channels. Simple diffusion happens as a method of passive transport in cells through plasma membranes.
The solutes travel through the plasma membrane in the process of diffusion from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration; this occurs without the use of energy. <u>Molecules moving against their concentration require active transport mechanism to cross the membrane</u>.
