How does Facilitated diffusion differs from diffusion in that facilitated diffusion?

Facilitated diffusion involves the use of carrier proteins to move specific molecules across the cell membrane, while simple diffusion does not require proteins and involves the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Facilitated diffusion is selective and allows for faster transport of specific molecules that may be too large or polar to diffuse freely through the membrane.


What is the random movement of molecules and ions down their concentration gradient called?

The random movement of molecules and ions down their concentration gradient (meaning from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration) is called simple diffusion. Simple diffusion is related to the magnitude of driving force, permeability of the membrane, and surface area.


How do substances like co2 and water move in and out of the cell?

By the process of diffusion and osmosis.


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 processes take material into cells?

Two main processes are involved in taking materials into cells: passive transport and active transport. Passive transport includes simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis, which do not require energy. Active transport, on the other hand, uses energy to move materials across the cell membrane against their concentration gradient.

What is the difference between facilitated diffusion and simple diffusion in terms of the mechanisms by which molecules move across a cell membrane?

Facilitated diffusion involves the movement of molecules across a cell membrane with the help of specific proteins, while simple diffusion does not require any proteins and relies on the molecules moving freely through the membrane.

Cells take in oxygen by simple diffusion and glucose by facilitated diffusion Therefore oxygen uptake and glucose uptake will differ from each other in all respects except what?

Oxygen uptake and glucose uptake will differ in terms of the transport mechanisms involved, as oxygen is taken in by simple diffusion while glucose requires facilitated diffusion. Other factors such as energy requirements, concentration gradients, and specific transport proteins involved may also vary between the two processes.
