An illustration of a cell interacting with its environment is provided.

The illustration best represents which of the following ?

A.Water moving into a cell by the process of osmosis

B.Passive transport of solute into the cell by diffusion

C.Active transport of solute into the cell using energy

D.Water leaving the cell by the process of osmosis

In the cell, there is passive transport of solute into the cell by the process of diffusion. So the correct option is B.

Diffusion is a phenomenon that happens when molecules move randomly and results in a net movement of matter from a high concentration area to a low concentration area. The scent of a flower that swiftly fills a room's quiet air is a common illustration.

Thermal energy is transferred or diffused from a higher to a lower temperature through the process of heat conduction in fluids. In order for a nuclear reactor to function, neutrons must diffuse through a material that frequently scatters them but only sometimes absorbs them.

It is discovered that the concentration gradient is proportional to the rate of flow of the dispersing material. If c is the substance's concentration, x is perpendicular to this reference area, and D is the constant of proportionality, then j = D(dc/dx); dc/dx is the rate of growth of concentration in the direction x, and the minus sign denotes that the flow is from higher to lower concentration. The diffusivity, or D, controls the rate of diffusion.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Can you get water out your blood stream please help I’m scared

The level of glucose in the bloodstream drops. The person requires glucose in cells to meet the demand for ATP (glucose is broken down to create ATP). The body detects glucose levels with a particular receptor designed for this function. These receptors release hormones, chemical messages that initiate the start of the feedback mechanism. The hormones travel to their target tissue and initiate a corrective response. In this case, the corrective response is the secretion of more glucose into the bloodstream. Does this demonstrate POSITIVE or NEGATIVE FEEDBACK?

You are looking at the color of feathers in ducks and find that Green feathers (G) are dominant to yellow feathers (g). However, a second gene, H, controls whether the color will be expressed in the feathers. If the duck is hh, the duck will always be white, because the pigment does not go into feathers.
