Which types of transport moves molecules against a concentration gradient?
osmosis
What is the transport that moves a solute down the concentration gradient?
facilitated diffusion
What are the ways in which Diffusion differs from Active transport?
In diffusion a substance moves from a high concentration to a lower one. In active transport it is the opposite, the substance moves from a low to a high concentration. Active transport always requires energy while no energy is needed in diffusion. diffusion is also down concentration gradient (just as osmosis), while active transport is against concentration gradient.
What moves up a concentration gradient and requires a carrier?
Primary Active Transport.
What is it when a molecule moves across a semipermeable membrane into a region of higher concentration?
Well, if it's moving into an area of higher concentration (that is, moving against the concentration gradient) that sounds like active transport (but it may go under different names, such as diffusion against the gradient)
What moves solutes against concentration gradient?
Passive Transport.
When something moves against the concentration gradient?
Active Transport
Which types of transport moves molecules against a concentration gradient?
osmosis
Is active transport with or against the concentration gradient?
Active transport requires energy as it moves against a concentration gradient. It actively propels molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration
Which cell process will move substances against a concentration gradient?
Active Transport is the cell process that moves substances against a concentration gradient.
Which of the following is an accurate comparison of active transport and facilitated diffusion?
Active transport moves solutes against their concentration gradient; facilitated diffusion moves substances down their concentration gradient.
Which transport mechanisms moves materials across a plasma membrane against an apparent concentration gradient?
active transport
Which process moves an ion across a cell membrane against a concentration gradient?
ative transport
What requires more energy simple diffusion or active transport?
Active transport requires energy, as this moves against a concentration gradient. Simple diffusion does not require any energy input - as this moves down a concentration gradient.
What is a major difference between facilitate diffusion and active transport?
Active transport moves substances against the concentration gradient.
What process requires energy and moves particles against the concentration gradient?
Active transport requires energy and moves particles against the concentration gradient. To move necessary molecules from an area of high concentration to an area that is lower using chemical energy is called primary active transport.
What moves up against a concentration gradient?
its active transport because it expands in opp direction and pushes
