What type of transport is carbon dioxide passive or active?
Passive (diffusion).
Does active transport rely on the process of diffusion?
Yes except, diffusion is a passive process (no energy is required) whereas active transport requires energy. this is because it is moving UP then concentration gradient whereas diffusion moves DOWN it
Is diffusion of molecules across the cell membrane the most complex type of active?
No, diffusion of molecules across a cell membrane is a passive process, not active, and arguably the least complex.
What is it called when materials move from lower to higher concentration?
Specifically Diffusion, but it is also active transport
Is phagocytosis active or passive transport?
During phagocytosis, the phagocyte is involved with engulfing a smaller particle of organism (or another cell). There is no passive or active transport as such. The process involved enveloping the smaller particle with the cell membrane of the host and bringing it into its interior. There is no diffusion or related passive process involved.
What process is active and passive in transporting substances?
facilitated diffusion
Is diffusion passive or active?
passive
Is diffusion an active or a passive transport?
Passive.
What type of transport is carbon dioxide passive or active?
Passive (diffusion).
Does active transport rely on the process of diffusion?
Yes except, diffusion is a passive process (no energy is required) whereas active transport requires energy. this is because it is moving UP then concentration gradient whereas diffusion moves DOWN it
Are diffusion and osmosis passive or active transports?
Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.
Is diffusion of molecules across the cell membrane the most complex type of active?
No, diffusion of molecules across a cell membrane is a passive process, not active, and arguably the least complex.
What is it called when materials move from lower to higher concentration?
Specifically Diffusion, but it is also active transport
Is facilitated diffusion ion channels an active or passive transport?
passive
Is diffusion active or passive transport of particles across the cell?
Passive.
Is facilitated diffusion active?
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.
Is diffusion passive or active transport?
Diffusion is passive, it happens everywhere whether living things are involved or not. It results from the natural thermal motion of particles.
