How is simple diffusion different from other types of passive transport? Diffusion is the net movement of material from an area of high concentration to an area with lower concentration. The difference of concentration between the two areas is often termed as the concentration gradient and diffusion will continue until this gradient has been eliminated. Since diffusion moves materials from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration it is described as moving solutes "down the concentration gradient" (compared with active transport … Tue Jan 08 2002 13:30:00 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time) · Facilitated diffusion is the process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a biological membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins. Being passive facilitated transport does not directly require chemical energy from ATP hydrolysis in the transport step itself; rather molecules and ions move down their concentration gradient reflecting its diffusive nature. Insoluble molecules diffusing through an integral protein. Facilitated diffusion is different from simple The nature of biological membranes especially that of its lipids is amphiphilic as they form bilayers that contain an internal hydrophobic layer and an external hydrophilic layer. This structure makes transport possible by simple or passive diffusion which consists of the diffusion of substances through the membrane without expending metabolic energy and without the aid of transport proteins. Passive transport - Wikipedia Passive transport - Wikipedia Passive transport - Wikipedia Since the ions are charged they cannot pass through the membrane via simple diffusion. Two different mechanisms can transport the ions across the membrane: active or passive transport. An example of active transport of ions is the Na + -K + -ATPase (NKA). Molecular diffusion often simply called diffusion is the thermal motion of all particles at temperatures above absolute zero. The rate of this movement is a function of...
