Facilitated transport is not common in bacteria because they typically rely on simple diffusion or active transport mechanisms to move molecules across their cell membranes. Bacteria have evolved to efficiently transport nutrients and other molecules through these methods, making facilitated transport less necessary for their survival and growth.
What else can I help you with?
In what ways are active transport and facilitated diffusion similar?
Active transport and facilitated diffusion are similar in that they both involve the movement of molecules across a cell membrane, but they differ in that active transport requires energy input from the cell, while facilitated diffusion does not.
How does facilitated transport differ from active transport in terms of the energy requirements and mechanisms involved in moving molecules across a cell membrane?
Facilitated transport and active transport are two ways molecules can move across a cell membrane. Facilitated transport does not require energy from the cell, while active transport does require energy in the form of ATP. Facilitated transport uses carrier proteins to help molecules move across the membrane, while active transport uses pumps to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
Does facilitated diffusion require energy to transport molecules across the cell membrane?
Facilitated diffusion does not require energy to transport molecules across the cell membrane.
Does facilitated transport require energy for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane?
Yes, facilitated transport does require energy for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane.
In what process are carrier proteins important?
Carrier proteins is important in facilitated diffusion. Facilitated diffusion transports molecules from one area of higher concentration on one side of the membrane to an area of lower concentration on the other side .Because the molecules are moving down their concentration gradient , facilitated diffusion is passive transport.
What type of transport does a small molecule enter a cell with help from a membrane protein additional energy is needed to complete this process?
Facilitated
What does active transport and facilitated diffusion have in common?
Both active transport and facilitated diffusion are methods of moving substances across cell membranes. Active transport requires energy input to move substances against their concentration gradient, while facilitated diffusion does not require energy and moves substances along their concentration gradient with the help of transport proteins.
Does facilitated transport have a sodium potassium pump?
The sodium potassium pump requires ATP - i.e. it is involved in active transport, not facilitated transport.
What form transport is facilitated diffusion?
Passive Transport
How do products of the cell get out of the cell?
Diffusion, facilitated diffusion, passive transport, facilitated transport (?) and active transport ... unless we are referring to viral or bacterial products.
Is facilitated diffusion active?
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.
Passive transport with the aid of transport proteins is what?
facilitated diffusion
How is facilitated diffusion diferant froma an active transport?
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport which does not require the cell to expend energy.
How is facilitated transport different from active transport?
Facilated transport does not need to use energy but active transport does.
What is a form of transport that uses transport proteins to move other ions and small molecules across the plasma membrane?
facilitated diffusionfiltration
What is facilitated transport?
Facilitated diffusion (or facilitated transport) is a process of diffusion, a form of passive transport facilitated by transport proteins. Facilitated diffusion is the spontaneous passage of molecules or ions across a biological membrane passing through specific transmembrane transport proteins. The facilitated diffusion may occur either across biological membranes or through aqueous compartments of an organism.
How is active transport different than simple and facilitated diffusion?
simple and facilitated diffusion don't require energy and are forms of passive transport. Active transport requires energy
