Facilitated diffusion requires

Answer:

<h3>A. </h3>

Explanation:

<h3>Tutorial</h3><h3>Diffusion</h3><h3>Diffusion means that the net movement </h3><h3>of particles (molecules) is from an area of high concentration to low concentration.</h3>

<h3>Graph of the simple and facilitated diffusion taking into account the rate of uptake and the concentration</h3>

<h3>If the particles can move through the lipid bilayer by simple diffusion, then there is</h3><h3> no limit to the number that can fit </h3><h3>through the membrane. The rate of diffusion increases linearly as we add </h3><h3>more particles to one side of the membrane.</h3>

<h3>If the particles can only pass through protein channels, then the rate of </h3><h3>diffusion is determined by the number of channels as well as the number of particles.</h3>

<h3>Once the channels operate at their maximal rate, a further increase in </h3><h3>particle numbers no longer increases the apparent rate of diffusion. At this limited rate we describe the protein channel as being saturated.</h3>

<h3>The cartoon illustrates several points about facilitated diffusion. The particles are more concentrated on one side of the membrane, and yet they can move in both directions. However, the net movement is from high particle concentration to low. If the number of particles gets so high on one side of the membrane that they</h3><h3> interfere with diffusion through the </h3><h3>protein channel, then we observe a limit to the rate of diffusion at the point of saturation.</h3>

<h3>Illustration of facilitated diffusion</h3><h3>animation used with permission of the Virtual Cell Web Page</h3><h3>Problem 7 | Answer | Problem 8</h3><h3>The Biology Project > Cell Biology > Cell Membranes > Problem Set</h3>

<h3>The Biology Project</h3><h3>Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics</h3><h3>University of Arizona</h3><h3>May 2002</h3><h3>Revised: August 2004</h3><h3>Contact the Development Team</h3>

<h3>Simple diffusion does not require energy: facilitated diffusion requires a source of ATP. Simple diffusion can only move material in the direction of a </h3><h3>concentration gradient; facilitated </h3><h3>diffusion moves materials with and against a concertion gradient. </h3>

Answer:

Explanation:

Interphase -Interphase is the portion of the cell cycle that is not accompanied by observable changes under the microscope, and includes the G1, S and G2 phases. During interphase, the cell grows (G1), replicates its DNA (S) and prepares for mitosis

Prophase- the first stage of cell division, before metaphase, during which the chromosomes become visible as paired chromatids and the nuclear envelope disappears. The first prophase of meiosis includes the reduction division.

Metaphase - Metaphase  is a stage of mitosis in the eukaryotic cell cycle in which chromosomes are at their second-most condensed and coiled stage (they are at their most condensed in anaphase). These chromosomes, carrying genetic information, align in the equator of the cell before being separated into each of the two daughter cells.

Anaphase - Anaphase  is the stage of mitosis after the process of metaphase, when replicated chromosomes are split and the newly-copied chromosomes (daughter chromatids) are moved to opposite poles of the cell

Telophase- he final phase of cell division, between anaphase and interphase, in which the chromatids or chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell and two nuclei are formed.
