Movement of a substance across a cell membrane using chemical energy occurs during?

Active transport is the movement of a substance across a cell membrane using chemical energy. This process requires the use of a carrier protein and ATP to transport molecules against their concentration gradient.


When a substance moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration while using energy the proces is termed what?

active transport


Does faciliated diffusion require energy?

Facilitated diffusion does not require energy because it relies on the use of carrier proteins to transport molecules across a cell membrane down their concentration gradient. These carrier proteins facilitate the movement of specific molecules such as glucose or ions without the need for ATP or energy input.


Where does friction get used?

Everywhere, for example sitting on your chair, walking, using a mode of transport.


How the pollutant has come to be in the environment?

by using the things which are effected in the environment. example: transport, using more electricity and many more.


What does facilitated diffusion do in a cell?

It allows for the flow of substances which are normally too large to pass through the cell membrane. Like active transport, it accomplishes this using channel proteins coded for each specific substance (sugar, for example). Unlike active transport, facilitated diffusion only works WITH the osmotic pressure gradient, not against.


By what process are bacteria brought into a cell?

Bacteria can enter a cell through a process called phagocytosis, where the cell engulfs the bacteria using its cell membrane. Alternatively, some bacteria can invade cells by injecting proteins that manipulate the host cell machinery to gain entry.


What is an example of a sentence using the word temperature?

The temperature of the substance is equal to the amount of heat applied


What type of substance that is taken into a root hair cell using active transport?

Mineral ions like potassium, calcium, and magnesium are typically taken into a root hair cell using active transport. Active transport allows the roots to selectively absorb essential nutrients against their concentration gradient from the soil into the plant.


How do carriers proteins facilitate passive transport of molecules across a membrane?

Carrier proteins facilitate passive transport of molecules across a membrane by changing its shape, by using ATP, to allow a substance to pass through the membrane.


Could you give me an example using the word solidify?

If a substance is cooled enough, it will solidify at its freezing point.


What Name one type of substance that is taken into a root hair cell using active transport?

Mineral ions such as potassium or nitrate are taken into root hair cells using active transport. This process requires energy to move the ions against their concentration gradient into the cell.
