Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Q.5: The cell membrane is made of a phospholipid bilayer, is selectively permeable, and surrounds the cytoplasm regulating what enters and exits. Not all particle - movement across it requires energy.
Q.6: The diagram shows particles moving from high to low concentration without energy input and without transport proteins, which is diffusion.
Q.7: Facilitated diffusion is the movement of molecules from high to low concentration through transport proteins without using energy.
Q.8: Osmosis is defined as the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane.
Q.9: In active transport, particles move against the concentration gradient and energy is required. It is not from high to low concentration (that's passive transport).
Q.10: Homeostasis is the ability to maintain a stable internal condition.
Q.11: Gas exchange in the lungs occurs by diffusion as oxygen and carbon - dioxide move from high to low concentration areas.
Q.12: The rate of diffusion increases as temperature increases because higher temperature gives particles more kinetic energy.
