Facilitated diffusion:
A) transports solute up its concentration gradient.
B) transports solute down its concentration gradient.
C) does not require a transport protein.
D) requires ATP hydrolysis for transport to occur.
Facilitated Diffusion is the passive transport of molecules or ions across a membrane with the help of a trans-membrane carrier protein or protein or ion channels across the membrane. Since it is a passive transport, there is no requirement of any chemical energy from ATP hydrolysis.
Using these carrier proteins for the individual molecules, the molecules or ions, i.e., solute are transported down their concentration gradient across a cellular membrane boundary.

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...
ane Transport - Facilitated Diffusion Side with higher concentration of molecules Transport protein Plasma membrane Facilitated diffusion causes a net movement of molecules down their concentration gradient. mework : Membrane Transport - Active Transport Side with higher concentration of square molecules Transport protein Energy input from the cell Plasma membrane Side with lower concentration of square molecules
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....
Diffusion: Which following statement is incorrect? Select one: a. Facilitated diffusion requires a transport protein b. It is a form of passive transport c.
