Answer:

False

Explanation:

Diffusion uses the concentration gradient that has been set up, this is a naturally occurring phenomena, and using a diffusion gradient some small particles can cross over the cell membrane. Some bigger or polar molecules require facilitated diffusion to move these molecules across the membrane.

Facilitated diffusion still uses the gradient for passive transport. This means that ATP is not used to transport molecules.

The reason that glucose will not move into the cell via passive transport is because there is a higher concentration of glucose inside the cell, meaning it needs active transport to move glucose (against the concentration gradient) into the cell.

Express scientific notation 12 thousandth
Sever21 [200]
12 thousandth is the same as 0.012, so to put something in scientific notation you move the decimal point to the left or right until it is between the first two numbers. So:

Moving the decimal for 0.012 to between the first two numbers, we get: 1.2

For every move of the decimal place to get there, we divide/multiply by 10 each time. In this case, we multiply by 10 each time.

To get to 1.2, we had to move the decimal 2 times, so the answer is 1.2×10^-2

When you move the decimal to the right, the value of the power is negative, and when you move it to the left it is positive.
