Answer:
Both facilitated diffusion and active transport are selective processes. Only selective molecules are allowed to cross the membrane. They utilize carrier proteins to move across the membrane.
Explanation:
Diffusion is the process by which molecules move across a membrane respective of the concentration gradient. The plasma membrane is a <em>selectively permeable membrane</em> which allows specific molecules to move across the concentration gradient.
Molecules migrate from a region of higher concentration to a lower concentration in case of diffusion. It can be classified into simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion. These are examples of <em>passive transport</em>.
In facilitated diffusion molecules move across the concentration gradient with the help of <em>carrier proteins or channel proteins</em>. The carrier proteins bind to the molecule which has to be transported and change conformation to allow it to cross the membrane. For example glucose molecule is carried across through <em>GLUT transporter</em>. <em>Channel proteins</em> open a channel inside the membrane and molecules get transported across the gradient.
Active transport carries molecules against the concentration gradient with the assist of energy. ATP hydrolysis is utilized to generate energy. As a result of active transport, the molecules are aggregated on one side of the membrane.
Answer:
Either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke.
One long, single molecule of double stranded, helical, supercoiled DNA. In most bacteria, the two ends of the double-stranded DNA covalently bond together to form both a physical and genetic circle
If you were to go in the career cluster of healthcare (medical), you would be able to assist your patients' needs better, understand what is really going on in their bodies, and give them suggestions for improving their overall health. Hope this helps. :D. Let me know if you have any questions about my explanations and feel free to ask more questions.
