What is the fundamental difference between carrier proteins that participate in facilitate diffusion and carrier proteins that function as pumps?
facilitated diffusion does not require energy, as it travels from a higher concentration gradient to a lower one(passive transport). Pumps do require energy to function(Active transport). This energy needed is ATP.
What else can I help you with?
Explain the differences among diffusion facilitated diffusion and osmosis?
osmosis is the movement of water across the plasma or cell membrane
What is falicitated diffusion?
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport where specific molecules are transported across the cell membrane with the help of transport proteins. Unlike simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion requires the presence of these proteins to facilitate the movement of molecules across the membrane.
Are aquaporins involved in osmosis or facilitated diffusion?
Aquaporins are involved in osmosis by facilitating the movement of water molecules across cell membranes. They do not participate in facilitated diffusion, which involves the transport of solutes across membranes with the help of carrier proteins.
How is diffusion determined?
Diffusion is determined by the concentration gradient, temperature, and the size of the molecules. The greater the difference in concentration, the higher the temperature, and the smaller the molecules, the faster diffusion will occur.
If diffusion is going to occur there has to be what?
A difference in the concentration throughout space because diffusion doesn't just happen in a cell or aqueous solution by definition diffusion is just from high to low concentration
What is the difference between diffusion and facilitate diffusion?
The difference between diffusion and facilitated diffusion is that facilitated diffusion is that the molecules pass through special protein channels.
What is a major difference between facilitate diffusion and active transport?
Active transport moves substances against the concentration gradient.
Explain the differences among diffusion facilitated diffusion and osmosis?
osmosis is the movement of water across the plasma or cell membrane
How much ATP does the Facilitate diffusion cost the cell?
Facilitated diffusion is an inactive mode.So no ATP cost.
What describes of the way proteins behave in facilitate diffusion?
They create channels
By what fundamental process are gases exchanged in respiratory systems?
its diffusion
What is the difference between diffusion and us-moss?
osmosses is diffusion of water only
What is falicitated diffusion?
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport where specific molecules are transported across the cell membrane with the help of transport proteins. Unlike simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion requires the presence of these proteins to facilitate the movement of molecules across the membrane.
What is the difference between dilute and dilution?
what is the difference between a diffusion and a dilution
What is the difference between bulk motion and diffusion?
The difference between the two is that bulk motion is the flow through the capillary. Diffusion is the movement of the molecules in a fluid.Ê
Why are gills only a few cells thick?
probably to facilitate diffusion of molecular oxygen from the air into the fish's bloodstream
What is needed to to facilitate diffusion and active transport?
ATP is needed for these two transport mechanisms to occur.
