What homeostatic process maoves particles against a concentration gradient?
passive transport
What is the process in which molecules move across the cell membrane from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration?
Active Transport - the process of moving particles across a cell membrane against a concentration gradient <- right one
Moving particles from a place of lower to higher concentration using energy is what process?
The answer is active transports because it goes from high to low concentration h ope this helps.
What is the purpose or goal of diffusion?
The ultimate goal is to produce Proteins and Carbohydrates for the cell and their organelles.
Is diffusion an active mechanism?
False
What homeostatic process maoves particles against a concentration gradient?
passive transport
What does it mean when you are going with the concentration gradient?
Going with the concentration gradient is basically the process of diffusion. Molecules going from a low concentration to a high concentration would be going with the concentration gradient. Going against the concentration gradient would be the movement of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration
Does osmosis work with or against the concentration gradient?
against the gradient
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called what?
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called active transport.
What do active transport and osmosis have in common?
They are both the movement of particles but active transport uses energy, so it can move against the concentration gradient.
What is the process that requires cellular energy to move a substance against its concentration gradient?
Active transport uses energy to move substances against the concentration gradient.
What is the differences between simple and active diffusion?
Simple diffusion goes with a concentration gradient and does not use ATP where active transport uses ATP to go against a concentration gradient.

Does active transport move with or against the gradient?
Against the gradient. It requires energy because it's going against the concentration of high to low.
What type of transport takes place when a protein allow an ion to enter a cell but no additional energy is needed to make this happen?
There are two types of transport that use channel proteins.The first type does not require energy to move the substance across the cell membrane.This is called facilitated diffusion. Energy is not required because the particles move along the concentration gradient, or the difference between the high concentration of particles outside the membrane and the low concentration of the particles inside.The second type of transport needs energy because it runs against the concentration gradient. This process is called active transport.
What moves solutes against concentration gradient?
The processes that can move a solute against its concentration gradient are active transport. All cells are enclosed by a plasma membrane that is similar in structure and function.
