How is active transport different than simple and facilitated diffusion?

simple and facilitated diffusion don't require energy and are forms of passive transport. Active transport requires energy


What are Vesicle mediated transport is a type of?

facilitated diffusion, secondary active transport and active transport


Is facilitated diffusion active?

No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.


In what ways are active transport and facilitated diffusion similar?

Active transport and facilitated diffusion are similar in that they both involve the movement of molecules across a cell membrane, but they differ in that active transport requires energy input from the cell, while facilitated diffusion does not.


Does facilitated transport have a sodium potassium pump?

The sodium potassium pump requires ATP - i.e. it is involved in active transport, not facilitated transport.


How is faciliated transport similar to active transport?

Both facilitated transport and active transport require the substance that passes the membrane to pass through intermembrane proteins. However, unlike active transport, facilitated transport does not require ATP because it is not actively going against the concentration gradient.


How does facilitated transport differ from active transport in terms of the energy requirements and mechanisms involved in moving molecules across a cell membrane?

Facilitated transport and active transport are two ways molecules can move across a cell membrane. Facilitated transport does not require energy from the cell, while active transport does require energy in the form of ATP. Facilitated transport uses carrier proteins to help molecules move across the membrane, while active transport uses pumps to move molecules against their concentration gradient.


How are facilitated diffusion and active transport different?

Because facilitated diffusion moves moolecules from regions of higher concentration toward lower concentration, active transport moves particles through membranes from region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration


How do products of the cell get out of the cell?

Diffusion, facilitated diffusion, passive transport, facilitated transport (?) and active transport ... unless we are referring to viral or bacterial products.


How is facilitated diffusion diferant froma an active transport?

Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport which does not require the cell to expend energy.


What does cell transport includes?

osmosis, active transport, facilitated transport, difussion,etc


How are facilitated diffusion and active transport different in terms of their mechanisms of transporting molecules across the cell membrane?

Facilitated diffusion uses transport proteins to move molecules across the cell membrane with the concentration gradient, while active transport requires energy to move molecules against the concentration gradient.
