Does facilitated diffusion require the use of energy?
Facilitated diffusion does not require the use of energy.
What are the differences between diffusion facilitated diffusion and osmosis?
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Facilitated diffusion involves the use of transport proteins to move specific molecules across the cell membrane. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane.
Does facilitated diffusion require the Cell to use energy?
No, there is no ATP used in facilitated diffusion, because it is a form of passive transport. It only differs from normal diffusion in that it uses transport proteins to move larger or more polar molecules across the membrane of the cell.
What are the main characteristics of facilitated diffusion?
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport that relies on carrier proteins to move specific molecules across the cell membrane. It does not require energy input from the cell and moves molecules down their concentration gradient. Facilitated diffusion is selective, allowing only specific molecules to cross the membrane based on their size and charge.
What is A large glucose molecule requires facilitated diffusion but an oxygen molecule referring to?
A large glucose molecule requires facilitated diffusion because it is too big to pass through the cell membrane without assistance from transport proteins. In contrast, an oxygen molecule is small enough to diffuse freely across the cell membrane through simple diffusion due to its size and hydrophobic nature.
What is a protein moves molecules across a membrane?
Facilitated diffusion moves molecules through cell membranes passively.
Is facilitated diffusion active?
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.
Facilitated diffusion required what?
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
Does facilitated diffusion require the use of energy?
Facilitated diffusion does not require the use of energy.
How much ATP does the Facilitated diffusion cost the cell?
Facilitated diffusion is an inactive mode.So no ATP cost.
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.
What is the difference between diffusion and facilitate diffusion?
The difference between diffusion and facilitated diffusion is that facilitated diffusion is that the molecules pass through special protein channels.
Is this true that Facilitated diffusion would be used on large molecules?
its false, facilitated diffusion would be used on small molecules
What is the use of carrier proteins for diffusion?
facilitated diffusion.
Where is facilitated diffusion found?
in the body
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.
Diffusion with a channel protein?
Channel proteins facilitate the passive movement of molecules down their concentration gradient. They form channels across the cell membrane, allowing specific molecules to move in and out of the cell without requiring energy input. This process is known as facilitated diffusion.
