Answer: <u>Option C; 48</u>

Explanation:

Let one number = x

Other number = x+2

According to question-

[x] [x+2] = 2400

x^{2} + 2x - 2400 = 0

Solving this equation, we get-

[x - 48] [x - 50 ] = 0

x = 48 or 50

Since 48 is the smaller number here, answer is option C

What type of molecule can easily diffuse through the plasma membrane without any help? Why?
babunello [35]
Water diffusion is called osmosis. Oxygen is a small molecule and it's nonpolar, so it easily passes through a cell membrane. Carbon dioxide, the byproduct of cell respiration, is small enough to readily diffuse out of a cell. Small uncharged lipid molecules can pass through the lipid innards of the membrane.
