About this document
Osmosis and Transport Mechanisms by Yatihanna Mrodi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to low water concentration until equilibrium is reached. Facilitated diffusion uses transport proteins to assist and increase the rate of diffusion across the membrane in the direction of the concentration gradient without energy expenditure. Active transport transports substances against their concentration gradient by carrier proteins that change shape when receiving energy from ATP to mo
