What is used in facilitated diffusion to assist the transport of sugar and sodium?
transport proteins both are carrier proteins and channel proteins
What else can I help you with?
What is the facilitated diffusion to assist the transport of sugar and sodium molecules?
transport proteins both are carrier proteins and channel proteins
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 used in facilitated diffusion to assist transport of sugar and sodium molecules?
transport proteins both are carrier proteins and channel proteins
Is glucose molecule passive or active transport?
Secondary active transport aka facilitated diffusion [depending on your teacher].
Does facilitated transport have a sodium potassium pump?
The sodium potassium pump requires ATP - i.e. it is involved in active transport, not facilitated transport.
Mechanisms of tubular reabsorption include what?
Reabsorption of nutrients in the renal tubule occurs via active transport and facilitated diffusion. Amino acids, glucose and phosphates are reabsorbed at the proximal convoluted tubule via active transport. Water and sodium chloride is reabsorbed at the loop of henle via facilitated diffusion.
What substance crosses the cell membrane by facilitated diffusion?
a sodium ion
Why is facilitated diffusion different from diffusion?
A sodium potassium pump is different from diffusion cos, it requires energy (ATP), and therefore is a active transport. Rather then diffusion which is the passive transport of solutions across cell membranes without using energy, and is determined by the concentration gradient.
How are nutrients absorbed by the intestine cells?
it depends on the nutrients and their size. some nutrients absorb via diffusion, others is facilitated diffusion (needs a carrier protein and no energy), and others are via active transport (needs energy and a protein channel).
What process moves sodium ions?
Sodium ions can be moved across cell membranes through the process of active transport, which utilizes energy from ATP to pump ions against their concentration gradient. Sodium ions can also move through facilitated diffusion, where they move down their concentration gradient with the help of transport proteins.
Passive and active transport?
Active Transpot. -Pumps -Endocytosis -Exocytosis Passive Transport - Diffusion -osmosis -Facilitated Diffusion active requires energy passive doesnt. active against concentration gradient, passive along concentration gradient.
Is sugar a osmosis passive transport or active transport?
Sugar is typically transported across a cell membrane using passive transport mechanisms like facilitated diffusion or simple diffusion. These processes do not require energy input from the cell. However, in some cases, active transport mechanisms such as the sodium-glucose cotransporter may be involved when sugars need to be transported against their concentration gradient, requiring energy.
