Answer: Simple difussion
Explanation:
Aldosterone is a steroid hormone of the mineralocorticoid family, produced by the external section of the glomerular zone of the adrenal cortex in the adrenal gland. It acts in the conservation of sodium, both by secreting potassium and by increasing blood pressure.
Simple diffusion is the process by which molecules flow through a permeable membrane without any external input of molecular energy. This process, which is ultimately due to a<u> difference in molecular concentration between the two media separated by the membrane, does not require an input of energy</u> because its main driving force is the increase in the total entropy of the system. <u>In this process the displacement of the molecules is produced following the concentration gradient, the molecules cross the membrane from the medium where they are in greater concentration, towards the medium where they are in lesser concentration</u>.
The molecules that can easily pass through the cell membranes due to this phenomenon are only gases (e.g. CO2, O2), hydrophobic molecules (e.g. benzene) and small polar molecules (e.g. H2O and ethanol), This is because hydrophobic and apolar molecules are soluble in the central apolar region of the lipid bilayer, and small polar molecules are small enough that unfavorable interactions are compensated for by an increase in the entropy of the system. On the other hand, large polar molecules such as glucose, amino acids and charged molecules or ions (Hx+, Na+, Cl+ and Ca2+) interact too strongly with the aqueous environment outside the lipid bilayer, and it is therefore very unfavourable from an energy point of view to break these interactions to cross the central hydrophobic region. As a consequence, biological membranes are practically impermeable to this type of molecules, so they require other transport mechanisms.
<u>So, since aldosterone is small, nonpolar and hydrophobic molecule, it passes throught the plasma membrane easily, down a concentration gradient</u>.
Answer:
One population may compete with another population for food. One population may compete with another population for shelter. One population may serve as a food source for another population.

Answer:
In the resulting offspring the correct proportions are for the genotype 1:1 and for the phenotype 1:1 (first option).
Explanation:
According to Mendel's Laws, the product of the cross between a heterozygous individual and a homozygous recessive for a character will always be a hybrid or recessive offspring as the Punnett square shows on image.
For the character -tall and short- of the pea plant:
Alleles t t
T Tt Tt
t tt tt
<u>For the genotype</u>: probabilities that in the offspring there are hybrid individuals with genotype Tt is 50% and recessive tt 50% .
<u>For the phenotype</u>: the probabilities of tall plants in the offspring are 50%, and 50% short plants.
A 50:50 ratio, for genotype and phenotype, is equivalent to saying that both phenotypic and genotypic ratio is 1:1.
