What else can I help you with?
What is it called when molecules uses energy to move across a semipermeable membrane?
Active transport
How does diffusion from active transport?
Active transport expends energy, unlike osmosis and diffusion. Active transport is a way to move substances against concentration gradients in the cell membrane, so they need more energy to do so.
What is used to move a substance through a membrane in active transport?
Electrochemical gradient is used to move substances through a membrane in active transport.
What do materials move from in active transport?
They move from the environment into the cell.
What is the purpose of active transport?
Active transport expends energy to move substances against a concentration gradient.
Is active transport able to move molecules against the concentration gradient?
Yes, active transport is able to move molecules against the concentration gradient.
What ways can cells move things by active transport?
. One method is that transport proteins in the cell membrane "pick up" molecules from outside the cell and carry them in, while using energy in the process. A second method is that the cell membrane surrounds a particle and takes it in.
How does active transport differ from diffusion?
Active transport expends energy, unlike osmosis and diffusion. Active transport is a way to move substances against concentration gradients in the cell membrane, so they need more energy to do so.
What type of transport requires energy to move molecule?
Active transport requires energy to move a molecule.
What is it called when materials move from lower to higher concentration?
Specifically Diffusion, but it is also active transport
What are the two way's active transport can take place?
Active transport can occur through two primary mechanisms: primary active transport and secondary active transport. In primary active transport, energy from ATP is directly used to move ions or molecules against their concentration gradient, typically via specific transport proteins like pumps. In secondary active transport, the movement of one substance down its concentration gradient drives the transport of another substance against its gradient, often utilizing the electrochemical gradient established by primary active transport.
What they call the process for a molecule to move from an area of low concentration to high concentration?
Active transport
