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 passive transport require ATP for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane?

No, passive transport does not require ATP for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane.


The movement of substances through a cell membrane without the use of cell energy?

Passive transport using osmosis and diffusion. Osmosis only applies to the movement of water down a concentration gradient across a selectively permeable membrane. DOH!!!


The movement of substances across the cell membrane that requires the cell to use energy?

It's called active transport. When talking about the cell, it is usually bigger substances that use passages in the cell membrane to access the inner part of the cell, and they need energy to get there. The opposite; passive transport or diffusion, is the movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without the use of cellular energy. THis happens with smaller substances.


How does passive transport move substances across a cell membrane in the direction of their concentration gradient?

Passive transport moves substances across a cell membrane in the direction of their concentration gradient without requiring energy input from the cell. This process relies on the natural movement of molecules from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration, facilitated by protein channels or carriers in the cell membrane.

How do you use passive transport in a sentence?

Passive transport is a process in cells where substances move across the cell membrane without requiring energy input. An example of passive transport is the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide across the cell membrane through simple diffusion.


What occurs if substances are too large to pass through the cell membrane by active or passive transport?

passive transport


A form of passive transport that involves membrane proteins to aid in the movement of substances?

Facilitated diffusion is a form of passive transport that involves membrane proteins to aid in the movement of substances across a cell membrane. The membrane proteins act as channels or carriers to facilitate the passage of specific molecules that cannot freely diffuse across the lipid bilayer. This process does not require energy input from the cell.


What is net movement of substances across plasma membrane without additional energy?

Diffusion. With the need of energy, it would be called active transport.


The movement of materials through a cell membrane without using the cells energy?

It's called passive transport for a cell's membrane. (I checked with my science teacher)

Can passive membrane transport processes include movement of water from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration?

No, passive membrane transport processes do not involve movement of substances from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration. Instead, passive processes such as osmosis and diffusion move substances down their concentration gradient, from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration without requiring energy input.


A sentence for the word passive transport?

Passive transport refers to the movement of molecules across a cell membrane. An example of a sentence would be: "Passive transport does not require energy to work".
