Summary Introduction

To determine:

The location in the concept map where the passive transport fits.

Introduction:

If a substance moves down the concentration gradient and without direct expenditure of energy, the movement is described as passive transport.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Discuss carrier-mediated transport. How could you experimentally distinguish between the different types of carrier-mediated transport?
Define the terms (i) facilitated diffusion, (ii) primary active transport and (iii) secondary active transport. Identify which of these transport types the following are examples of: a) ATP/ADP translocase b) K^+ channels c) Bacteriorhodopsin
For 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?
