Which of the following statements about passive transport is correct

Asked by admin @ in Chemistry viewed by 308 People

Which of the following statements about passive transport is correct? a. Passive transport permits the solute to move in either direction, but the net movement of the population of solute molecules occurs down the concentration gradient of the molecule. b. Passive transport operates independently of diffusion. c. In passive transport, solute movement stops when the solute concentration is the same on both sides of the membrane.

Answer:

C. In passive transport, solute movement stops when the solute concentration is the same on both sides of the membrane

Explanation:

Passive transport is how is called to the movement of atomic or molecular substances across cell membranes without the use of energy. There are different types of passive transports, the four main kinds are diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion and filtration.

The correct statement is the C and is talking about the type of transport called diffusion, this net movement drives material from an area of high concentration into another with lower. This difference between the areas is called the concentration gradient and the passive transport would stop when both sides are balanced.

I hope this answer helps you.
