if you mean that active transport is an act of diffusion, than yes it is.
Sugar transport can occur through both passive transport, such as facilitated diffusion or simple diffusion, and active transport, such as primary or secondary active transport processes. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane, so sugar transport itself is not osmosis.
Substances can move into and out of a cell through passive diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport. In passive diffusion, molecules move from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Facilitated diffusion involves the use of carrier proteins to help molecules pass through the cell membrane. Active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is used during active transport but not passive transport. Active transport requires energy to move substances against their concentration gradient, while passive transport relies on diffusion to move substances down their concentration gradient without the need for energy.
Active transport. This process uses energy to pump substances against their concentration gradient, allowing them to move from areas of lower concentration to higher concentration.
nutrient are broken down before entering the cell.small parts of nutrients are taken inside a cell be diffusion and passive transport. there is no energy usage this kind of transport. but there are some big molecules that can not enter cell membrane. so there are taken by active transport.(there is a energy usage in active transport).
Active transport uses energy while diffusion does not
Facilitated diffusion, or diffusion through ion channels, is not a form of active transport. It is a spontaneous passive transport.
simple diffusion.
They act as barriers to the diffusion of certain substances.Read more: What_role_does_the_cellular_membrane_play_in_passive_transport
facilitated diffusion, secondary active transport and active transport
Diffusion is an example of passive transport, like osmosis(the diffusion of water through a membrane).
ATP is required for active transport.
no they are passive transport
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.
Specifically Diffusion, but it is also active transport
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.
