Passive Membrane Transport
A process that does not require energy to move molecules from High to Low concentration.
Three Main Types of Passive Transport
Simple Diffusion: Movement of small molecules.
Osmosis: Movement of water molecules.
Facilitated diffusion: Movement of large or charged molecules through membrane proteins.
Reflection
I learned that Passive Membrane Transport is from to high to low concentration, which does not require energy. There are 3 main types of Passive Transport(Simple Diffusion, Osmosis, and Facilitated Diffusion). I enjoyed this topic and learning about the different types of transport.

What kind of particles pass through?
ReplyDeleteIt depends on what type of transport. For example, osmosis water molecules pass through.
DeleteWhich requires more energy?
ReplyDeletepassive membrane transport DOES NOT require energy.
