- Give one way in which active transport differs from facilitated diffusionarrow_forwardFor each type of membrane transport, know the following:– Is a transporter protein required? If so, what type?– Is there an energy requirement, and if so, what is the energy source?– What is the relative rate of solute transport based on molecule type? On concentration gradient?– What are examples of the types of solutes transported by carriers and channels?arrow_forwardWhat are the distinctions between facilitated difussion, primary active transport and secondary active transport?arrow_forward
- what are the two types of facilitated diffusion and what is an example of each?arrow_forwardMolecules cannot move naturally through tje selmembrane against its diffusion gradient,but it does.Explain this statement critically using the sodium-potassium pump diagramarrow_forwardWhen a bacterial cell is placed in a hypotonic, environment, the cell wall restrains the pressure resulting from the greater osmolarity of the cytoplasm. (Use one word in the blank space. Spelling must be correct to earn the point. The word "osmotic" is NOT an answer that that will earn credit for this question; there is another word that is required.)arrow_forward
- Examine the graph presented here. Using your knowledge of how the processes work, label each curve as representative of either simple diffusion or facilitated diffusion. Explain how you determined which curve was which.arrow_forwardWhat is active transport? DESCRIBE the function of Na+/K+ ATPasearrow_forwardSelect the best option: In diffusion, substances move from areas of (greater) (lesser) to (greater) lesser concentrations.arrow_forward
- Statement 1: The direction of diffusion of a solute across a membrane is determined by its concentration gradient and always moves toward equilibrium. Statement 2: In passive transport, solutes move down the gradient from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration. A Both statements are true. Both statements are false. C) Statement 1 is true. Statement 2 is false. Statement 1 is false. Statement 2 is true.arrow_forwardCan you help me to explain every question with these answer?arrow_forwardIn your own words, describe one similarity and one difference between diffusion via channels (like aquaporins) and facilitated diffusion.arrow_forward
