What else can I help you with?
Can you write a sentence using the word an passive transport?
it depends most of the time YES
Is osmosis active or a passive transport?
Passive.
What energy is required for passive transport?
By definition, passive transport on a cellular level requires no energy other than some sort of gradient, whether of the molecule in question, or another whose movement across the membrane can be linked to the one of interest.
Is osmosis active trasport or passive trasport?
Osmosis is an example of Passive Transport.
Distinguish between active and passive transport?
Active Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane through the expenditure of energy. Passive Transport is the passage of materials across the membrane without the expenditure of energy. Bulk Transport is the type of active transport. Diffusion and Osmosis are type of passive transport.
Can passive transport reach equilibrium?
Yes, passive transport can reach equilibrium. In passive transport, molecules move across a membrane without the need for energy input. Once the concentration of molecules is equal on both sides of the membrane, equilibrium is reached and there is no further net movement of molecules.
When does passive transport come to a stop?
Passive transport does not come to a stop as long as there is a concentration gradient. Once equilibrium is reached and there is no longer a difference in concentration on either side of the membrane, passive transport will slow down significantly but may continue at a very slow pace.
Why is the term 'equilibrium' used with passive but not active transport?
The term "equilibrium" is used with passive transport because it describes a state where there is no net movement of molecules across a membrane due to equal concentration on both sides. In active transport, energy is used to move molecules against their concentration gradient, so equilibrium is not reached as the process continues to pump molecules in or out of the cell.
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".
The type of transport that requires no cellular energy?
Passive transport requires no cellular energy as it relies on the movement of molecules down their concentration gradient, such as diffusion and osmosis. These processes occur spontaneously to maintain equilibrium within the cell.
What is an example of passive transport across a cell membrane?
Osmosis is a type of passive transport. It is specialized diffusion. It can occur through the membrane itself. Or through an aquaporin channel protein. Other forms of passive transport include: simple diffusion and facilitated (uses channel protein) diffusion.
Is transport proteins active transport or passive transport?
passive
Facilitated diffusion is a example of?

Is passive equilibrium the same as equilibrium?
No, passive equilibrium refers to a state where a system remains at rest or in a fixed position without external energy input. Equilibrium, on the other hand, is a state in which opposing forces or influences are balanced. Passive equilibrium can be a type of equilibrium but not all equilibriums are passive.
Is transport proteins a passive transport?
Carrier proteins can be involved in passive transport.
What does the passive in passive transport mean?
Passive Transport is the movement of molecules down a concentration gradient from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration until equilibrium is reached. Some examples are diffusion and osmosis. Basically, it's a movement of molecules across a membrane that doesn't require energy (ATP)
How does active transport differ from passive transport-?
Active transport requires energy while passive transport does not.
