Absolutely, in order for passive transport to occur, the concentration on one side of the membrane must be larger than the concentration on the other side of the membrane. The molecules move from higher to lower concentration.
From high concentration to low concentration.
Energy is not required for passive transport to occur. Passive transport processes such as diffusion and osmosis rely on the inherent kinetic energy of molecules to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration without the need for external energy input.
it moves materials from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentrationit moves materials of high concentration to areas of low concentration
Diffusion is a type of passive transport where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration without the use of energy.
Active transport is the movement of molecules across a membrane requiring energy to be expanded by the cell. ACTIVE TRANSPORT REQUIRES ENERGY. Passive transport is diffusion across a membrane requiring only random motion of molecules with no energy expanded by the cell. PASSIVE TRANSPORT REQUIRES NO ENERGY.
Passive transport moves with the concentration gradient.
Passive transport moves molecules from a high to low concentration gradient.
Yes, passive transport moves substances with the concentration gradient.
The concentration gradient is a passive force in cellular transport processes.
Active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient while passive transport does not require energy and moves molecules from high to low concentration. Active transport is selective and can transport specific molecules, while passive transport is nonselective and moves molecules based on their concentration gradient.
Passive transport moves down the concentration gradient, from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
From high concentration to low concentration.
Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not.
No, passive transport cannot occur against the concentration gradient. It only moves substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
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
Active transport and passive transport are two different processes by which substances move across a cell membrane. Passive transport does not require energy and relies on the natural movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Active transport, on the other hand, requires energy in the form of ATP to move molecules against their concentration gradient, from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. This difference in energy requirements is what distinguishes active transport from passive transport.
Yes, passive transport moves along the concentration gradient, meaning that substances move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration without the input of energy. Examples of passive transport include diffusion and osmosis.
