Question

Which of the following is an example of of passive transport across cell membrane

Answer 1

Answer:

Three common types of passive transport include simple diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion. Simple Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. A couple of common examples will help to illustrate this concept.

Answer 2

Answer:

Passive transport is a type of membrane transport that does not require energy to move substances across cell membranes.[1][2] Instead of using cellular energy, like active transport,[3] passive transport relies on the second law of thermodynamics to drive the movement of substances across cell membranes.[1][2][4] Fundamentally, substances follow Fick's first law, and move from an area of high concentration to one of low concentration because this movement increases the entropy of the overall system.[4][5] The rate of passive transport depends on the permeability of the cell membrane, which, in turn, depends on the organization and characteristics of the membrane lipids and proteins.[citation needed] The four main kinds of passive transport are simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, filtration, and/or osmosis. Passive transport follow Fick's first law and Second law of thermodynamics
