A non-energy requiring process that moves materials across a cell membrane with the concentration gradient.?
The process of moving materials across the cell membrane without the expenditure of energy is called passive transfer
When a cell membrane protein moves a solute in the opposite direction as the concentration gradient?
as the concentration gradient increases at the solute side. make the question more clear.
The net flow of materials through the membrane of a cell against a concentration gradient is?
It's Active Transport.
What is the transport of materials against a concentration gradient called?
The process of moving materials against a concentration gradient is called active transport. Active transport generally uses a protein pump to move molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration; in order to perform an active transport, the cell must use some of its energy to initiate the reaction.
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called what?
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called active transport.

What determineds the direction in which a substance diffuses across a membrane?
Concentration gradient determines the direction of flow.
When a cell membrane protein moves a solute in the opposite direction as the concentration gradient?
as the concentration gradient increases at the solute side. make the question more clear.
The net flow of materials through the membrane of a cell against a concentration gradient is?
It's Active Transport.
Which transport mechanisms moves materials across a plasma membrane against an apparent concentration gradient?
active transport
What determines the direction in a substance diffuses across a membrane?
The concentration gradient determines the direction in which a substance diffuses across a membrane. The concentration gradient is a measure of how the concentration of a substance changes from one place to another.
What is the transport of materials against a concentration gradient called?
The process of moving materials against a concentration gradient is called active transport. Active transport generally uses a protein pump to move molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration; in order to perform an active transport, the cell must use some of its energy to initiate the reaction.
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called what?
The transport of a substance across the cell membrane against its concentration gradient is called active transport.
What does concentration gradient have to do with diffusion of substances across the cell membrane?
concentration gradient moves from high to low until equilibrium is reached.
What happens when concentration gradient 0?
When the concentration gradient is 0, no flow is allowed to go through the cell wall. To get motion through a membrane, the concentration gradient must be higher than 0.
What regulates the rate of passive transport?
the concentration gradient and the membrane
What term describes the difference in the concentration of a substance across a cell membrane?
concentration gradient
