No. Diffusion (passive transport) can take place without a cell. For example, if you were to put some coloured food dye into a cup of water, the food dye would spread until it eventually was a uniform colour. This is the process of diffusion, which is the movement of a substance down a concentration gradient.

Passive Transport means no energy is required.

Energy is blank from the cell for passive transport?

Energy is not required for passive transport, as it occurs naturally due to the concentration gradient without the cell expending energy. Examples of passive transport include simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis.


How does all the material required by the cell get into the cell?

Via endocytosis, active transport and facilitated passive transport and diffusion.


What are cells called that transfer sugar?

It is not a cell, but a required action a cell takes. It is called the passive transport.


How does passive transport benefits a cell?

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


How does passive transport benefit cell?

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


Is a passive transport an example of an essential nutrient for the cell?

Passive transport is not an example of essential nutrients for the cell.


Does diffusion require the cell to respire?

Diffusion is a form of passive transport, so nothing is required for it to occur.


Is enewrgy required for the movement of water molecules across the cell membrane?

No. Osmosis is a form of passive transport.


Is the transport mechanism in the model cell passive or active?

passive


Why is no energy required in passive transport processes?

In passive transport processes, no energy is required because molecules move across the cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, following the natural flow of diffusion. This movement occurs spontaneously and does not require the cell to expend energy.


What type of transport is it when gluclose molecules move into a cell?

Glucose molecules entering a cell typically occurs through facilitated diffusion, which is a type of passive transport. This process involves the movement of glucose across the cell membrane with the help of specific transporter proteins.


If the substance entering the cell was in higher concentration inside the cell then outside the cell what type of transport would be required?

It would be active transport, a process which requires a cell to use its own energy (unlike passive transport).
