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

Passive transport operates independently of the concentrations of the moving solute.Group of answer choicesTrueFalse

Passive transport permits the solute to move in either direction, but the net movement of solute molecules is always down its concentration gradient.Group of answer choicesFalseTrue

Passive transport permits the solute to move only out of the cell, not into the cell.Group of answer choicesFalseTrue

Osmosis is considered passive transport.Group of answer choicesTrueFalseNext

Passive membrane transport processes:move solutes down their concentration gradients in the absence of energyrequire the input of energy to move a solute across the plasma membraneonly transport lipid-soluble solutesalways require the use of channel or carrier proteins to move solutes across the plasma membrane
