Question 5 • Anatomy & Physiology A

Passive transport can be explained by which statement?

Answer
A
Particles move randomly.
B
Energy is used to move particles.
C
Large particles can move into cells.
D
Particles are moved to areas of higher concentration.

Explanation

Passive transport does not require cellular energy; particles move because of their random motion, typically resulting in a net movement from higher to lower concentration. Therefore, “Particles move randomly” is the correct statement. Moving particles to higher concentration generally requires energy.
