Question

exit ticket- passive transport
which of the following is an example of passive transport?
sodium potassium pump
endocytosis
exocytosis
simple diffusion

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Passive transport is a type of cellular transport that does not require energy input. Simple diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration and is a form of passive transport. The sodium - potassium pump is an example of active transport as it uses energy to move ions against their concentration gradient. Endocytosis and exocytosis are forms of bulk transport that require energy.

Answer:

simple diffusion
