Q: Differentiate between active transport and passive (simple) diffusion. (At least 4 differences)

A: Transport of materials takes place all throughout the body. Circulatory system of the body is the…

Q: Does diffusion require energy to occur

A: Diffusion is a kind of transport in which dissolved substances or particles move from region of…

Q: Contrast simple diffusion with facilitated diffusion.

A: Simple Diffusion means when molecules move through a cell membrane but they do not use the channels…

Q: What are porins? What role do they play in diffusion?

A: Bacterial outer membrane is found in the gram-negative bacteria and its composition is different…

Q: Which observation would suggest that active transport, rather than diffusion, is responsible for…

A: Introduction: Transportation of substances across the cell membrane occurs via various methods.…

Q: Where in the human body does diffusion occur? Give three examples.

A: Diffusion is the process of movement of a substance or solute from an area of its high…

Q: Define: simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, primary active transport, secondary active…

A: Diffusion is movement of solute molecules from higher to lower concentration through the…

Q: Thoroughly explain the difference between simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active…

A: Simple diffusion is a type of passive transport which as the name suggests, is simply the unassisted…

Q: Facilitated diffusion differs from active transport in that facilitated diffusion transports…

A: For the transportation of molecules across a cell membrane, the systems meant for it are called as…

Q: Differentiate diffusion, facilitated diffusion and osmosis

A: Diffusion allows both solvent and solute molecules to move freely, while osmosis only allows solvent…
