What else can I help you with?
What does facilitated diffusion not require?
Passive diffusion occurs when you have unequal concentrations of solutes on either side of a permeable membrane, therefore facilitated diffusion shouldn't require a difference in solute concentration to drive it.
Which type of transport occurs when a membrane protein binds to a molecule on one side of the cell membrane and then releases it on the other side?
Facilitated diffusion occurs when a membrane protein binds to a molecule on one side of the cell membrane and then releases it on the other side. This type of transport does not require energy and relies on the concentration gradient to move molecules across the membrane.
What is a protein moves molecules across a membrane?
Facilitated diffusion moves molecules through cell membranes passively.
State how facilitated diffusion is achieved?
Facilitated diffusion occurs when a substance is aided across a membrane by a special molecule called an ionophore. Ionophores allow some molecules to diffuse but not others, effectively speeding up the rate of diffusion of that molecule.
Is facilitated diffusion active?
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.
What type of diffusion is specific and passive and becomes saturated if all of protein carriers are in use?
Facilitated diffusion is the specific and passive type of diffusion that becomes saturated when all protein carriers are in use. This occurs because facilitated diffusion relies on specific protein carriers to transport molecules across the cell membrane, and once all carriers are engaged, the rate of diffusion cannot increase further.
Facilitated diffusion required what?
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
Does facilitated diffusion require the use of energy?
Facilitated diffusion does not require the use of energy.
What is the difference between diffusion and facilitate diffusion?
The difference between diffusion and facilitated diffusion is that facilitated diffusion is that the molecules pass through special protein channels.
What is faciillitated diffusion?
Facilitated diffusion is diffusion that occurs not through the cell membrane directly but through protein channels within the cell membrane. They are often, although not always, substrate specific.
What are the 3 types of diffusion?
simple diffusion, osmosis and facilitated diffusion.
How much ATP does the Facilitated diffusion cost the cell?
Facilitated diffusion is an inactive mode.So no ATP cost.
