Generally it isn't, diffusion is a process that requires no energy.

The energy from photons hitting photo system II is used to produce what?

The energy from photons hitting photosystem II is used to drive the process of water splitting, resulting in the release of oxygen and the generation of electrons that are then used in the photosynthetic electron transport chain to produce ATP and NADPH.


What molecule supplies the energy for active transport?

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the molecule that supplies the energy for active transport in cells. ATP is produced during cellular respiration and carries energy that is used by transport proteins to move molecules against their concentration gradient.


What is the process that living things use light energy to produce glucose?

1) Plants use light for transport of electrons from water molecules in chloroplasts. 2) this electron transport leads to transport of protons which are necessary for production of ATP by ATP synthase protein. 3) this ATP is used for incorporation of CO2 into sugars (sugars = carbohydrates)


What is the role of photosystem 2?

The role of photosystem II is to capture sunlight and initiate the process of photosynthesis by using light energy to split water molecules into oxygen, protons, and electrons. This process replenishes electrons in the photosynthetic electron transport chain and ultimately leads to the generation of ATP and NADPH for the Calvin cycle.


How high energy electrons are used in electron transport?

The energy molecule formed by the electron transport chain is called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. Anywhere from 34 to 36 ATP can be produced during the electron transport chain.

Is ATP needed for osmosis?

No, ATP is not needed for osmosis. Osmosis is a passive process that occurs due to the concentration gradient of solutes across a semi-permeable membrane. ATP is required for active transport processes, not osmosis.


What is the main way that active transport differs diffusion?

ATP is required for active transport.


The energy required for active transport processes is obtained from what?

From ATP


Which protein complex in the electron transport chain after photosystem 2 produces ATP?

The protein complex in the electron transport chain after photosystem II that produces ATP is ATP synthase. This enzyme is responsible for converting the energy stored in the proton gradient into ATP through a process known as oxidative phosphorylation.


How is most most of the ATP from aerobic respiration produced?

The majority of ATP is produced in oxidative phosphorylation. This process has two main components, the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis. Chemiosmosis is a process where hydrogen ions act like water threw a turbine pushing ATP synthase.


The electron transport chain produces ATP through what process?

The electron transport chain produce ATP during cell respiration and photosynthesis.


Which type of membrane transport process uses ATP as a source of energy?

Active transport processes use ATP as a source of energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient across a cell membrane. This process requires specific transport proteins, such as ion pumps, to actively transport molecules across the membrane.


What is an example of anaerobic ATP formation a alcoholic fermentation b electron transport phosphorylation c protein-mediated transport?

a. In alcoholic fermentation, anaerobic ATP formation occurs when glucose is broken down into pyruvate through glycolysis, followed by further conversion of pyruvate into ethanol and carbon dioxide, releasing ATP as a byproduct. b. Electron transport phosphorylation is an aerobic process that occurs in the mitochondria, where electrons from the electron transport chain are used to generate ATP by phosphorylating ADP to ATP. c. Protein-mediated transport involves the movement of molecules or ions across a cellular membrane with the help of specific proteins. This process does not directly involve ATP formation, but ATP may be required for protein synthesis or to maintain the ion gradients needed for transport.


Is oxygen required to make ATP?

Yes, oxygen is required to make ATP through the process of aerobic respiration.


The energy required for the mechanism of active transport comes from?

The product of ATP decomposition.


What are the products from the Electron Transport Chain?

water and atp.


Is vesicular transport active or passive?

The contractile vacuole collects water, then pumps it out of the cell. It requires energy to be expended, so it is a type of active transport.
