Some examples of nutrients that require only passive transport through cells would be small molecules of glucose, oxygen, amino acids, carbon dioxide, and water.

Is a passive transport an example of an essential nutrient for the cell?

Passive transport is not an example of essential nutrients for the cell.


Does passive transport uses the cell wall?

Passive transport occurs inly with plasma membrane.


The different between passive transport and active transport?

Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.


When are active and passive transport and their types used?

Active transport uses energy in the form of ATP. Active can force electrons against the electron gradient as in the electron transport chain. Passive transport does not use energy and an example of passive transpost is osmosis.


A form of passive transport that uses transport proteins-?

Diffusion (passive transport) needs no energy to take place, and therefore no need for transport or carrier protiens. Active transport uses carrier protiens, as the cell needs to work against a concentration gradient. This requires energy. Diffusion can take place outside of cells Active transport can't take place outside of cells.


Which type of transport uses energy passive or active transport?

Active transport because it move up the concentration gradient which requires energy to do so. Where as the passive transport goes down the concentration which does not need energy.


How do molecules move by passive transport?

During passive transport. The particles do this with out energy. During osmosis is also passive tranport. Active transport uses energy or ATP.


Is transport proteins active transport or passive transport?

passive


What are two forms of passive transport of a cell?

Two forms of passive transport (or transport not involving energy/ATP) are diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Another form is osmosis. Also keep in mind that passive transport is for smaller particles.


What is the difference between active and passive cellular transport?

Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.


Is water an active or passive transport?

It is passive transport because of the diffusion.
