What is channel-mediated diffusion a subtype of?

Diffusion carried out by protein channel is termed channel mediated diffusionRead more http://www.kgbanswers.com/what-is-channel-mediated-diffusion/4450816#ixzz1EANNtr00


A molecule such as glucose must use a protein channel to cross through a cell membrane?

facilitated diffusion


When a protein channel allows molecules to cross through the cell membrane?

when a protein channel allows molecules to cross through the cell membrane this is called facilitated diffusion. many might mistake this for diffusion which is the process by which molecules tend to move from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated.


What are responsible for the transport of substances down a concentration gradient during facilitated diffusion?

Carrier proteins.


What moves products through a cell membrane?

Diffusion, facilitated diffusion, Osmosis and Active Transport. Diffusion moves non-polar molecules across the cell membrane down a concentration gradient. Osmosis moves water across the cell membrane through a channel formed by aquaporins called a protein channel, down the water potential gradient. Active moves the non-polar molecules against the concentration gradient, in contrast to diffusion. Lastly, facilitated diffusion moves polar molecules across the cell membrane through creating protein channels in the cell membrane from specific proteins. ETC, glucose transporters bind to form a protein channel for glucose to diffuse through, after which the proteins disperse. That should be all, hope it was of help!

How does facilitated diffusion work?

It is a passive process utilizing a protein carrier or channel.

Give example of facilitated diffusion?

Glucose molecule going through the protein channel to enter and exit the cell. Hope I could help.


Is facilitated diffusion type of active transport?

Facilitated diffusion is passive transport as no energy is used, and a protein channel is all that's required. After that it is simple diffusion down a concentration gradient. Anything with the word diffusion in it is passive transport. Diffusion is just the principle of passive transport.
