What kind of concentration does passive transport go to?

From high concentration to low concentration.


What kind of substances are likely to move via passive transport through phospholipod bilyer?

Small, non-polar molecules like oxygen and carbon dioxide are likely to move via passive transport through a phospholipid bilayer. These molecules can easily diffuse across the lipid bilayer due to their size and hydrophobic nature. Larger or polar molecules generally require other mechanisms such as facilitated diffusion or active transport to cross the membrane.


What kind of molecules can move across the membrane For simple diffusion?

Passive transport is dependent on the permeability of the cell membrane, which, in turn, is dependent on the organization and characteristics of the membrane lipids and proteins. The four main kinds of passive transport are diffusion, facilitated diffusion, filtration and osmosis.Simple diffusion is the unassisted passage of small, hydrophobic, nonpolar molecules.


Simple diffusion is an example of what kind of cellular transport?

Simple diffusion is an example of passive transport. In this process, substances move across a cell membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration without the need for energy input. This mechanism allows small, nonpolar molecules, like oxygen and carbon dioxide, to enter or exit cells freely.


What kind of molecules are moved in active transport?

Active transport requires energy, unlike passive transport. The carrier proteins in active transport act as a "pump" ( fueled by ATP) to carry/attach themselfves to useful proteins for the cell.

What kind of concentration does passive transport go to?

What kind of transport across a membrane does not require energy?

Passive transport does not require energy as it allows molecules to move across a membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Examples of passive transport include diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion.


What is transported in passive transport?

A kind of transport by which ions or molecules move along a concentration gradient, which meansmovement from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.


Osmosis does it need energy?

No, actually diffusion is a kind of passive transport, and osmosis is a kind of diffusion. Any passive transport can happen without energy (contrary to active transport). Since, all the things you listed were passive transport, they happen down the concentration gradient and need no ATP.


What kind of passive transport happens when molecules move from a area where there more molecules to an area where there are fewer?

Diffusion is the word you're looking for.


How are glucose molecules moved into a cell and what kind of transport is this?

Glucose molecules are moved into a cell via a transport protein called a glucose transporter. This process is facilitated diffusion, a type of passive transport that does not require energy. Glucose transporters help move glucose across the cell membrane down its concentration gradient.


What kind of transport is osmosis?

Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a semi-permeable membrane (from a low-concentration gradient to a high-concentration gradient). Ummm how in the world does that answer the question "What kind of transport is Osmosis?" Is it Active or Passive that's what we want to know however I do believe from my information that the answer in which we are looking for is PASSIVE. PLEASE correct me if I am incorrect and excuse my mistake.


How do nutrients first enter a cell?

nutrient are broken down before entering the cell.small parts of nutrients are taken inside a cell be diffusion and passive transport. there is no energy usage this kind of transport. but there are some big molecules that can not enter cell membrane. so there are taken by active transport.(there is a energy usage in active transport).


What is the process that forces molecules through membranes?

I don't think that question has one answer, considering how vast the field molecular science is and there are many things to consider, but I think what your looking for is "osmosis". The process in which a solvent (generally water) moves through a mostly permeable membrane (permeable to the solvent not to the solute) from a high solute concentration to a low solute concentration without energy inputs of any kind separating two solutions of different concentrates. hope this helps.
