Passive membrane transport processes include _ .

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Passive membrane transport processes do not require the consumption of ATP. Instead, they rely on the movement of substances down their concentration gradient, which occurs spontaneously and does not require an input of energy. Option C is incorrect as water moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration during passive transport. Option D is also incorrect as the use of transport proteins to move substances from low to high concentration requires energy and is therefore an example of active transport.
