Answer and Explanation:

1. diffusion

2. osmosis

3. active transport

4. facilitated diffusion

5. diffusion

6. active transport

7.  active transport

8. exocytosis

1- diffusion: It consists of the passage of the molecules of the solute, from the place of greatest to the place of lowest concentration, until establishing a balance. It is a slow process, except when the concentration gradient is very high or the distances covered are short.

2 - osmosis: Water moves freely through the membrane, always from the place with the lowest concentration of solute to the one with the highest concentration.

3 - active transport: In active transport, substances are transported with energy expenditure, which can occur from the lowest to the highest concentration (against the concentration gradient). This gradient can be chemical or electrical, as in the transport of ions.

4 - facilitated diffusion: Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport of substances across the cell membrane, which is supported by proteins. It occurs without expenditure of ATP, that is, without expenditure of energy.

5 - diffusion: It consists of transporting substances permeable to the membrane. These, in solution, can flow spontaneously from the inside of the cell or vice versa. This process occurs from a region with a higher concentration of particles to one with lower concentrations.

6 - active transport

7 - active transport

8 - exocytosis: process where the cell expels unnecessary substances from its interior resulting from its enzymatic processes.

i was told this before by a teacher, so yeah

what statement best describes the difference between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems?

the sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for intense physical activity and is often referred to as the fight-or-flight response. the parasympathetic nervous system has almost the exact opposite effect and relaxes the body and inhibits or slows many high energy functions.
