diffusion is the spread of something moving with the concentration gradient. active transport is where the movement requires energy like moving a carbohydrate into a cell. you need to use a transmembrane protein and ATP.
Active transport is used to transfer particles when there is no concentration gradient. Active transport requires energy to occur however, diffusion does not.
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration and active transport is the movement of molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of...
Diffusion occurs only due to the concentration gradient i.e. slovent move from its high concentration to low concentration side, where as active transport also take use of energy mostly in the form...
Diffusion is the random movement of molecules (due in part to Brownian motion and thermal agitation).
Active transport needs an agent to transport the molecules.
Diffusion is simply the movement of solute from an area of greater concentration to lower concentration. Passive transport is the transport of molecules that do not require energy. Diffusion and...
