What is facilitated diffusion?

Back

Facilitated diffusion is a passive transport process that allows large molecules to pass through the cell membrane with the help of protein channels, without the use of energy.

Front

What type of process is facilitated diffusion?

Back

Passive process.

Front

What does selectively permeable mean in relation to the cell membrane?

Back

Selectively permeable means that the cell membrane allows certain substances to pass through while blocking others.

Front

What are the main products of photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen and Glucose.

What is the primary purpose of DNA replication?

Back

To copy DNA.

Front

What are enzymes primarily made of?

Back

Proteins.

Front

What is the role of protein channels in facilitated diffusion?

Back

Protein channels assist large molecules in crossing the cell membrane.

Front

What is the difference between passive and active transport?

Back

Passive transport does not require energy, while active transport requires energy to move substances against their concentration gradient.

Front

What is the significance of glucose in photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose is a product of photosynthesis that serves as an energy source for plants and other organisms.

Front

What is the function of the cell membrane?

Back

The cell membrane protects the cell and regulates what enters and exits the cell.
