Does endocytosis go from a high to low or low to high concentration?
Endocytosis is the process by which cells take in materials from their environment by engulfing them. It does not involve the movement of substances from a high to low or low to high concentration; it simply involves the uptake of materials into the cell.
What kind of concentration does passive transport go to?
From high concentration to low concentration.
Does diffusion go from high concentration to low concentration?
Yes, they move from high, to low.
Why is energy needed for transport?
Molecules are moving against a 'concentration' gradient. Active transportation moving from low to high concentration, while passive transportation such as osmosis and diffusion go from high to low concentration.
What is it called when particles travel from an area of high concentration to an aera of low concentration?
Through passive transport
What direction are substances said to diffuse?
if something diffuses e.g. particles through the air or CO2 out of body cells means the particles go from a high concentration to a low concentration
How do nutrients and pass into a cell?
Osmosis (when nutrients go from a high concentration of nutrients to a low concentration) and phagocytosis (when the cell actually eats it)
When particles diffuse. from what concentration to what concentration do they diffuse?
Particles diffuse from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This is driven by the natural tendency for particles to move from regions of higher energy to regions of lower energy in order to achieve equilibrium.
Is Active transport high to low or low to high concentration?
Active transport. To go "upstream" requires ATP, a form of energy, to pump against the ion gradient.
What is the process in which water diffuses through a cell?
The process through which water diffuses through a cell is called osmosis. Water moves from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration, across a semi-permeable membrane, in order to equalize the solute concentrations on both sides of the membrane.
Does osmosis go with the concentration gradient?
Yes, osmosis involves the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration. This movement occurs in response to the concentration gradient of water molecules.
Which way do molecules move during active transport?
Molecules move against their concentration gradient, from an area of low concentration to high concentration, in active transport. This process requires energy input to pump the molecules across a membrane using specific proteins like pumps or carriers.
