Question

transport summary:

  • passive transport
  • diffusion down concentration gradient (high → low)
  • simple diffusion
  • diffusion of very small, nonpolar, hydrophobic molecules

Explanation:

Response

To fill the table, we analyze each transport type using the provided summary:

1. Diffusion
  • Active or Passive?: Passive (diffusion down concentration gradient, no energy needed)
  • Energy or no Energy?: No Energy (passive transport)
  • High to low or low to high?: High to low (down concentration gradient)
  • Transport protein needed?: No (simple diffusion through membrane)
  • With or against the concentration gradient?: With (down gradient: high → low)
  • Use of a transport Vesicle?: No (small molecules, no vesicles)
2. Facilitated diffusion
  • Active or Passive?: Passive (still diffusion down gradient, just facilitated)
  • Energy or no Energy?: No Energy (passive)
  • High to low or low to high?: High to low (down gradient)
  • Transport protein needed?: Yes (through protein channels)
  • With or against the concentration gradient?: With (down gradient)
  • Use of a transport Vesicle?: No (uses channels, not vesicles)
3. Osmosis
  • Active or Passive?: Passive (type of facilitated diffusion for water, down gradient)
  • Energy or no Energy?: No Energy (passive)
  • High to low or low to high?: High to low (water moves to high solute, low water → high water? Wait, osmosis: water moves from low solute (high water) to high solute (low water) → so water gradient is high → low (water concentration). So overall, for water, high (water) → low (water) which is high to low in water, but solute is low → high. But the question is "High to low or low to high?" (for the substance moving? Wait, osmosis is water moving. So water moves from high water (low solute) to low water (high solute) → so high to low (water). So answer: High to low.
  • Transport protein needed?: Yes (aquaporins, a type of protein channel)
  • With or against the concentration gradient?: With (water moves down its concentration gradient)
  • Use of a transport Vesicle?: No (uses aquaporins)
4. Active transport
  • Active or Passive?: Active (requires ATP, moves against gradient)
  • Energy or no Energy?: Energy (requires ATP)
  • High to low or low to high?: Low to high (against concentration gradient)
  • Transport protein needed?: Yes (protein pumps like Sodium - Potassium pump)
  • With or against the concentration gradient?: Against (low → high)
  • Use of a transport Vesicle?: No (uses pumps, not vesicles)
5. Exocytosis
  • Active or Passive?: Active (requires ATP, bulk transport)
  • Energy or no Energy?: Energy (requires ATP)
  • High to low or low to high?: High to low (moves large molecules out, but the gradient for the molecule? Wait, bulk transport moves large molecules regardless, but the process is active. Wait, exocytosis is moving molecules out of the cell, often from high concentration inside to low outside? Or not? Wait, bulk transport (exo/endo) is active, requires ATP, uses vesicles. So for the direction: it's moving molecules out (exocytosis) - the concentration gradient? Maybe not the main factor, but the process is active. So "High to low or low to high?" - maybe the answer is not straightforward, but since it's active, it can move against, but often it's moving from inside (where concentration may be high) to outside (low). But the key is the process is active. However, for the table, let's go by the summary: bulk transport moves large molecules, requires ATP (active), uses vesicles. So:
  • Active or Passive?: Active
  • Energy or no Energy?: Energy
  • High to low or low to high?: Let's assume it can be either, but the process is active. But maybe the answe…

for each row:

Diffusion:
  • Active or Passive?: Passive (diffusion down concentration gradient, no energy).
  • Energy or no Energy?: No Energy (passive transport doesn't need energy).

  • With or against the concentration gradient?: With (moves down the concentration gradient).
  • Use of a transport Vesicle?: No (small molecules, no vesicles involved).
Facilitated diffusion:
  • Active or Passive?: Passive (still diffusion down gradient, just with help).
  • Energy or no Energy?: No Energy (passive, uses concentration gradient as energy source).
