Write a paper that describes and compares the processes of diffusion, facilitated
transport, osmosis, and active transport.
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Distinguish between the following pairs of terms: a. diffusion; osmosis b. passive transport; active transport c. endocytosis; exocytosisDefine and provide an example for each of the following: simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis, passive transport and active transport.Compare and contrast diffusion, osmosis, facilitatedtransport, and active transport.
- Compare and contrast facilitated diffusion, activetransport, and secondary active transport.Provide 2 examples of Diffusion, Osmosis, and Semi-Permeable Membrane (1 from the "Diffusion Through a Membrane" lab and 1 from any biological situation) and explain how those examples illustrates the concept.Draw and describe the similarities and differences between facilitated diffusion and active transport, including the movement of molecules relative to their concentration gradient and the use of energy
- compare and contrast osmosis and diffusionMake a table and summarize the 5 types of transport mechanisms (passive transport, facilitated diffusion, primary active transport, symporter, antiporter) and compare them in terms of the following: - Electrochemical gradient (downhill/uphill) - Carrier-mediated or Not - Metabolic EnergyWhat is another way to answer this question Describe various examples of active transport. How is active transport different from passive transport? Without saying this: Active transport is when cells move against the flow/ concentration gradient, moving from low concentrations to high concentrations. Because of this, active transport requires ATP to work. Passive transport is different because it doesn't use much energy and moves from high concentration to a low concentration. Some examples of active transport are the Sodium-potassium pump ( the most well known one) where it takes sodium ions and pumps them outside of the membrane to let in potassium ions. Another one in plants is when a plant receives ions from the soil. The soil has a much lower concentration of ions than a plants root does, so ions have to move against the concentration gradient. Endocytosis and exocytosis are also forms of active transport. Where cells engulf its self around large molecules to bring…
