A correct distinction between facilitated diffusion and active transport of a substance across a biological membrane is that . . .
A. active transport requires conformational changes in the transport protein associated with the transport process, and facillitated diffusion does not.
B. active transport requires integral membrane protein to carry out the transport, and facillitated diffusion does not.
C. facilitated diffusion depends on an existing energy gradient acting on the transported substance, while active transport makes such a gradient.
D. facilitated diffusion requires a protein lined pore in the membrane, and active transport does not.
E. facilitated diffusion requires energy from ATP hyrdolysis, but active transport does not.
The correct option is C. facilitated diffusion depends on an existing energy gradient acting on the transported substance, while active transport makes such a gradient.
Facilitated diffusion process depends on an existing energy gradient. This process does not directly involve energy in the form of ATP or GTP. Therefore, the molecules move along their concentration gradient.
Particles move against the concentration gradient in the process of active transport. Therefore, this process requires an input of energy in the form of ATP from the cell.

How does facilitated diffusion differ from simple diffusion? Facilitated diffusion requires ATP Facilitated diffusion requires a solute-specific protein carrier Facilitated diffusion transports solute against its’ concentration gradient Which of the following is TRUE about primary active cell membrane transport? It is a form of transport that requires a protein “pump” It is a form of transport that transports ions and/or solute against their concentration gradient It is a transport mechanism that requires energy released from the splitting of ATP by...
For a substance crossing a cell membrane, the chemical driving force Select one: a. depends only on the concentration gradient if the substance is uncharged, but also depends on the electrical force if the substance is an ion. b. is the force that pushes molecules across the membrane, but only if the substance is actively transported. c. depends only on the concentration gradient, regardless of whether or not the substance is an ion d. is the total driving force on...
Please summarize this chapter typed clearly. Diffusion Is a passive process of transport. A single substance tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until the concentration is equal across a space. Facilitated transport Facilitated diffusion is the process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a biological membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins. Channels The integral proteins involved in facilitated transport are collectively referred to as transport proteins, and they...
