Answer:

The correct option is D: Sharkskin produces many chemicals that can be collected and used to create antibiotics.

Explanation:

Sharkskin can resist bacteria and other types of germs due to the microscopic pattern of ridges it has on its surface. This is especially useful in case of bacteria that have developed an antibiotic resistance. There are biotechnology companies that are developing a product with a texture like that of a sharkskin, so as to have the same properties of microbial resistance.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

How Do Sugar Molecules Cross the Cell Membrane?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The correct answer is - through facilitated diffusion and active transport.

Explanation:

Glucose is a six-carbon sugar molecule that is directly utilized by cells to provide energy. A glucose molecule is large enough to go through a cell membrane with simple diffusion.  

Cells help glucose molecules to cross the cell membrane through facilitated diffusion and active transport. Active transport is of two types primary and secondary active transport to help the glucose molecule to cross the membrane.

Thus, the correct answer is - through facilitated diffusion and active transport.
