The passive transport of material across the cell membrane requires the breakdown of ATP.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Passive transport does not require the breakdown of ATP. It involves the movement of molecules from high concentration to low concentration without the use of energy. Examples of passive transport include diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion. Active transport, on the other hand, requires the breakdown of ATP for the movement of molecules against their concentration gradient.
