Introduction to passive and active transport

passive transport  Active and Passive transport are the two main biological process that supply nutrients, water, oxygen to cells and removes waste products  There are four different types of Passive membrane transport, these are: Diffusion, Osmosis, Facilitated diffusion and Filtration Diffusion is

Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport that allows substances to cross membranes with the assistance of special transport proteins All forms of diffusion are passive transport In facilitated diffusion, molecules move down their concentration gradients

Passive transport Passive transport is a type of cellular transport in which substances such as ions and molecules move down their respective Passive transport
