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
What else can I help you with?
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.
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.
Distinguish between active and passive transport?
Active Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane through the expenditure of energy. Passive Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane without the expenditure of energy. Bulk Transport is the type of active transport. Diffusion and Osmosis are type of passive transport.
Is facilitated diffusion an example of active transport?
No, facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport where molecules move across a cell membrane with the help of transport proteins. Active transport, on the other hand, requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
What type of transport is it when gluclose molecules move into a cell?
Glucose molecules entering a cell typically occurs through facilitated diffusion, which is a type of passive transport. This process involves the movement of glucose across the cell membrane with the help of specific transporter proteins.
Is osmosis form of active transport or passive transport?
It is a type of passive diffusion, as the water travels along a concentration gradiant. As opposed to active transport, where the substances can pass against a concentration gradiant.
What type of cellular transport requires a cell to use energy?
facilated diffusion cause when yer active you use energy
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.
Is channel-mediated diffusion a form of active transport?
Yes, when channels are specific for the structures of individual molecules it is active transport. Active transport cannot occur if the energy they are moving is not of the same type, like glucose cannot move calcium.
Which type of transport requires assistance from membrane proteins?
Active transport requires assistance from membrane proteins. These proteins, such as ion pumps and carrier proteins, help move molecules against their concentration gradient, requiring energy input to drive the process.
Is facilitated diffusion is an active transport?
The name itself indicates there difference. Diffusion occurs without any other active participant/free flow diffusion is called Transport diffusion. Diffusion occurs with help of other active participant is called Facilitate Diffusion
