Passive transport doesn't require energy and that helps the cell.


How does passive transport benefits a cell?

Passive transport doesn't require energy and that helps the cell.


When does a cell not have to use energy?

Passive transport


Which transport does not require cell energy?

Diffusion is per definition a passive transport process.


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.


What is a passive trasport?

Passive transport is the movement of molecules through cell membranes with out the use of energy by the cell


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)


Does passive transport require the cell to expand energy?

yes


What type of transport does not require energy?

Passive transport does not require energy, as it involves the movement of molecules across a cell membrane without the input of energy. This includes processes such as diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion.


Is diffusion active transport?

No, it is passive transport because it does not require any of the cell's energy.


What is the main difference between active trasport and passive transport?

Active transport requires energy (ATP, GTP, etc) to work against the electrochemical gradient. Passive transport works with the electrochemical gradient and does not require energy. (Think diffusion)


What is difference between active transport and passive transport?

One difference is energy consumption. Active transport requires the cell to expend energy, while passive transport does not. Active transport is movement from a lower concentration to a higher concentration and passive transport is movement from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Active transport is the movement of molecules across a membrane requiring energy to be expended by the cell. Passive transport is diffusion across a membrane requiring only random motion of molecules with no energy expanded by the cell. Active transport requires ATP to transport materials. Passive transport does not require ATP input to transport materials. Ex: diffusion
