Is bulk flow a form of passive or active transport?

All transport through the cell membrane can be classified as?

passive or active transport. Passive transport does not require energy input and includes processes like diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Active transport requires energy input and includes processes like primary active transport and secondary active transport.


Why is diffusion any example of passive transport?

No, diffusion is passive transport.Active transport would be when there are actual proteins and structures involved in the transportation of molecules/chemicals/etc..A sure sign is that all of these (that I know of) require ATP.An example would be the Sodium-Potassium Pump located along one's neurons which actively pumps (aka. transports) sodium and potassium back and forth across the membrane to build up potential charge. This is how "signals" are sent down neurons and around the body.


What word includes diffusion osmosis and facilitated diffusion?

The word that includes diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion is "passive transport." These are all types of passive transport processes where molecules move across a membrane without the need for energy input.


How is facilitated diffusion different from passive transport?

Mediated Transport has an extra step of binding to a carrier protein, while Passive transport does not bind to a protein. Both of them however, move along the concentration gradient (High--> Low)

Why do plants use passive transport?

Plants use passive transport because it does not require energy expenditure. Passive transport mechanisms like diffusion and osmosis allow plants to move water, nutrients, and gases across their cell membranes based on concentration gradients. This is an efficient way for plants to absorb essential resources from their environment.


What separates active transport from passive transport?

Active transport is when a cell needs to use energy in or to let substances pass in through or out or its cell membrane or cell wall. Passive transport requires to energy at all making substances like water easy to let pass through.

What are the different types of cell transport?

active transport -transport against concentration gradient that requires chemical energy passive transport- requires no energy at all


What are all the differences between active and passive transport?

Passive transport occurs when the concentration of something on one side of membrane is different from the concentration on the other side. It occurs when that substance can pass through the membrane, and always in the direction of more -> less. No energy is required to make the substance move; in fact, this movement generates energy. This is like rolling a rock down a hill--it just does it on its own.Active transport occurs in the opposite direction, from less -> more. It requires energy for transport. This is like rolling a rock up a hill--you have to push it the entire way!Both involve the transport of a substance across a membrane, and the change in concentrations on different sides of a membrane. Both are also important to the proper functioning of a cell.Active transport requires energy, but passive transport requires none.Active transport requires a special protein to make the transport occur, but passive transport requires none.


What Two reasons to avoid using passive voice?

1. Not all verbs can be used in a passive form. 2. Passive is usually used without the 'actor' of the sentence and this is not always suitable. Passive doesn't have to be avoided you just need to use passive forms at the right time.
