well that depends on how long or tall it is!

Diffusion and Osmosis
active transport
Particles in a given medium stop moving across the membrane during diffusion when a state of equilibrium is reached, that is when the number of particles on either side of the membrane equalizes.
Yes, passive transport is the process by which particles move across a cell membrane without the input of energy. This can occur through processes like diffusion and osmosis, where particles move down their concentration gradient to reach equilibrium.
The electrons moving across the inner membrane in mitochondria come from the oxidation of nutrients, such as glucose, during the process of cellular respiration. These electrons pass through the electron transport chain, generating a gradient of protons across the inner membrane that is used to produce ATP through a process called oxidative phosphorylation.
The process for moving cellular wastes across the cell membrane is known as active transport. Active transport is a source of energy that allows molecules to move from low concentrations to high concentrations, and provides the needed boost to move the molecules uphill.
The antonym of osmosis is diffusion. Diffusion is the process of particles moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, whereas osmosis is specifically the movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane.
Passive transport is a non-energy requiring process that moves materials across a cell membrane with the concentration gradient. This process includes simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis.
Yes, in an isotonic solution the movement of molecules across the membrane will stop.
The process that can move molecules from a low to a high concentration through a cell membrane is active transport.
