What structure is the statement below most likely referring to A large glucose molecule requires facilitated diffusion but an oxygen molecule does not?

A large glucose molecule requires facilitated diffusion but an oxygen molecule does not is a semipermeable membrane.


How does the size of molecules affect diffusion?

The larger the molecule, the slower the rate of the osmosis; and the smaller the molecule, the slower the rate of osmosis.

What kind of molecule in the cell membrane brings particles into the cell?

Water, or H20 allows for transfer of nutrients inside the cell. The cell membrane is semi-permeable, meaning some things can penetrate it, but some things can't.

How are the dissolved particles of a molecular solid such as sugar different from the dissolved particles of an ionic solid such as table salt?

The components of ionic solids are held together by ionic bonds and when dissolved in a polar solvent (like water) they will dissociate into ions. For example, salt (NaCl) dissolves into Na+ and Cl-. A molecular solid like sugar, however, is held together by stronger covalent bonds and will remain the in the solvent as a whole molecule.
