Carbon dioxide cannot be transported across the membrane by passive transport. However, water and sodium ions can be transported using passive transport.

How is water transported across the membrane?

Water is transported by a passive transport called osmosis. Osmosis is diffusion of water across the membrane.


How is oxygen transported in the cell?

by active and passive transport via cell membrane proteins


How do you use passive transport in a sentence?

Passive transport is a process in cells where substances move across the cell membrane without requiring energy input. An example of passive transport is the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide across the cell membrane through simple diffusion.


Is diffusiona type of passive transport or active transport?

Passive transport is where materials are transported across a membrane without the use of stored energy. Active transport is where materials are transported across a membrane using ATP, or another source of stored cellular energy. Diffusion is where solutes flow across a membrane in response to a concentration gradient, and requires no energy input to occur. Therefore, diffusion is a form of passive transport.


Does passive transport require sugar?

Passive transport does not require sugar. Passive transport is a process by which molecules move across a cell membrane without the input of energy, such as diffusion or osmosis. Sugar molecules can be transported passively, but the process itself does not depend on sugar.


What are two examples of passive transport?

Two examples of passive transport are simple diffusion, where molecules move across a membrane from an area of high concentration to low concentration, and facilitated diffusion, where molecules move across a membrane with the help of specific transport proteins.


There are two main ways in which molecules are transported into and out of cells - active transport and passive transport. Which of the following statements is true of passive transport?

Carrier proteins are sometimes used during passive transport.


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.


Does passive transport require ATP for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane?

No, passive transport does not require ATP for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane.


Is sugar a osmosis passive transport or active transport?

Sugar is typically transported across a cell membrane using passive transport mechanisms like facilitated diffusion or simple diffusion. These processes do not require energy input from the cell. However, in some cases, active transport mechanisms such as the sodium-glucose cotransporter may be involved when sugars need to be transported against their concentration gradient, requiring energy.


What occurs if substances are too large to pass through the cell membrane by active or passive transport?

passive transport


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)
