What is falicitated diffusion?
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport where specific molecules are transported across the cell membrane with the help of transport proteins. Unlike simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion requires the presence of these proteins to facilitate the movement of molecules across the membrane.
Facilitated diffusion required what?
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
What is the use of carrier proteins for diffusion?
facilitated diffusion.
What type of proteins are used in facilitated diffusion?
Facilitated diffusion involves the use of integral membrane proteins known as carrier proteins or channel proteins to help transport specific molecules across the cell membrane. These proteins provide a pathway for the molecules to cross the lipid bilayer more efficiently than simple diffusion.
Diffusion requires what?
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
What type of passive transport is shown is the transparency?
Facilitated diffusion because carrier proteins are being used.
Which type of passive transport involes the movement of molcoules via special transport proteins?
facilitated diffusion
The movement of molecule down a concentration gradient through transport proteins in the cell membrane is a type of?
facilitated diffusion.
What type of solute molecules may be moved by diffusion?
Many polar molecules and ions with the assistance of transport proteins.
What macromolecule is involved in facilitated diffusion?
Facilitated diffusion involves the transport of molecules across the cell membrane with the help of transport proteins. These transport proteins are typically made up of proteins, which are macromolecules. Therefore, macromolecules involved in facilitated diffusion are proteins.
How does faciliated diffusion differ from simple diffusion?
Facilitated diffusion needs some sort of help. Often it would be a protein. Simple diffusion doesn't. If you spill something smelly on the floor in the kitchen, you will smell it all through the house. It will spread by simple diffusion.
What is the primary cause of diffusion?
The primary driving force of facilitated diffusion are surface cell proteins. These proteins transport substances in and out of the cell.
