Post by: mikael on Apr 8, 2014
Which does not apply to the diffusion of O2, CO2 and small hydrophobic molecules across a membrane?
A) Diffusion is driven by the concentration gradient across the membrane.
B) The diffusion is spontaneous and there is a decrease in free energy as diffusion occurs.
C) The transport is saturable.
D) Membrane proteins are not needed for the diffusion process.
