Three types of passive transport?
There are three forms of passive transport, or the movement of biochemical and other atomic or molecular substances across the cell membranes. They are: osmosis, simple diffusion or facilitated diffusion, and filtration.
What is the transport that moves a solute down the concentration gradient?
Simple diffusion
What is a protein moves molecules across a membrane?
Facilitated diffusion moves molecules through cell membranes passively.
Two types of passive transports are?
PASSIVE TRANSPORTS ARE OF TWO TYPES. 1)SIMPLE DIFFUSION 2)FACILITATED DIFFUSION 1)SIMPLE DIFFUSION:-diffusion of water and dissolved gas is simple. when concentration on both sides of membrane becomes the same,it stops. 2)FACILITATED DIFFUSION:-this also occurs along concentration gradient with help of carrier molecules.
Are aquaporins involved in osmosis or facilitated diffusion?
facilitated diffusion
What are the 3 types of diffusion?
simple diffusion, osmosis and facilitated diffusion.
How does facilitated diffusion from simple diffusion?
It doesn't. (answer by RRU member Cyrem)

What are the types of diffusions?
In Biology there are three types of diffusion. There are simple, channel, and facilitated diffusion.
What is the similarity between simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion?
both need transport protein
What is the transport that moves a solute down the concentration gradient?
Simple diffusion
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 the three transport processes that do not require cell energy?
Passive Transport,Facilitated Diffusion, and Simple Diffusion
What characteristic is shared by simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion?
They both diffuse the particles in order to reduce the boner.
Diffusion with a channel protein?
They are the channels by which molecules enter in facilitated diffusion.
How does diffusion take place in the body?
P.I.S.O.- Potassium in Sodium out facilitated diffusion, active transport , and passive transport and simple diffusion.
What is a protein moves molecules across a membrane?
Facilitated diffusion moves molecules through cell membranes passively.
