What does the cell transport include?

Cell transport includes processes like passive diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, and endocytosis/exocytosis. These processes help cells regulate the movement of molecules across their membrane to maintain a balance of ions and nutrients inside and outside the cell.


All forms of passive transport depend on what?

All forms of passive transport depend on the movement of molecules or ions across a cell membrane without the use of cellular energy (ATP). This includes processes such as diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion.


What is it called when the movement of materials through a cell membrane without using the cells energy?

Passive transport does not use energy to pass through a cell membrane. active transport uses energy to pass through a cell membrane.


Does glucose enters a cell most rapidly by facilitated diffusion?

No, glucose enters a cell most rapidly through facilitated diffusion with the help of glucose transporters, such as GLUT proteins. Facilitated diffusion allows glucose to move down its concentration gradient into the cell without requiring energy.


Facilitated diffusion and active transport?

Facilitated diffusion is the passive transport of molecules across a membrane with the help of transport proteins. This process occurs down the concentration gradient and does not require energy. In contrast, active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient through specific transport proteins.
