Question

State two features of diffusion that do not support active transport

Answer 1

• ❈ Both use ion channels to move ions across the cell membrane, in or out of the cell. Differences: Passive Transport (or Diffusion) moves ions from high concentration to low, using no metabolic energy. Active Transport moves ions from low concentration to high, using metabolic energy in the form of ATP.

Answer 2

Answer:

the major difference is that diffusion is downhill and active transport is uphill

and diffusion does not require ATP that is it is passive whereas active transport requires ATP that is active

Explanation:

downhill here means from high concentration to low concentration and uphill the opposite
