  • What are the two main types of transport?

    The two main types of transport are passive transport and active transport.
  • What is a difference between facilitated diffusion and active transport?

    Facilitated diffusion does not require energy and moves molecules down their concentration gradient, while active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
  • How is active transport different from diffusion?

    Active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient, while diffusion does not require energy and moves molecules down their concentration gradient.
  • What is the similarity between active transport and facilitated diffusion?

    Both active transport and facilitated diffusion involve the use of transport proteins to move molecules across membranes.
  • Which of the following is not an example of active transport? A) Sodium-potassium pump B) Endocytosis C) Diffusion D) Proton pump

    C) Diffusion
  • How is active transport different than simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion?

    Active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient, while simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion do not require energy and move molecules down their concentration gradient.
  • Which of the following transport mechanisms is passive? A) Endocytosis B) Exocytosis C) Osmosis D) Active transport

    C) Osmosis
  • How do facilitated diffusion and active transport differ?

    Facilitated diffusion does not require energy and moves molecules down their concentration gradient, while active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
  • Which of the following is a form of passive transport? A) Active transport B) Endocytosis C) Diffusion D) Exocytosis

    C) Diffusion
  • How are facilitated diffusion and active transport similar? How are they different?

    Both use transport proteins to move molecules across membranes. Facilitated diffusion does not require energy and moves molecules down their concentration gradient, while active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.

    A) Diffusion and B) Osmosis
  • Which statement best describes passive transport?

    Passive transport involves the movement of molecules across biological membranes without energy input, occurring from high to low concentration.
  • Which of the following is a passive mechanism used to move materials into and out of the cell? A) Endocytosis B) Exocytosis C) Diffusion D) Active transport

    C) Diffusion
  • Which two transport mechanisms are considered to be passive? A) Diffusion and osmosis B) Active transport and endocytosis C) Exocytosis and phagocytosis D) Pinocytosis and receptor-mediated endocytosis

    A) Diffusion and osmosis
  • What type of transport is involved in this process?

    The process described is passive transport, which involves the movement of molecules across biological membranes without energy input, occurring from high to low concentration.
  • What is passive transport in biological membranes?

    Passive transport is the movement of molecules across biological membranes from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration without the use of energy.
  • How does passive transport differ from active transport in terms of energy requirement?

    Passive transport does not require energy, while active transport requires energy input, typically from ATP.
  • In which direction do molecules move during active transport?

    Molecules move from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration during active transport.
  • Why does active transport require energy?

    Active transport requires energy because it moves molecules against their concentration gradient, from low to high concentration.
  • What are membrane transport proteins?

    Membrane transport proteins are proteins embedded in the cell membrane that facilitate the movement of molecules across the membrane.
  • What is a uniporter?

    A uniporter is a membrane transport protein that transports one type of molecule at a time in one direction across the membrane.
