The process that is characterized by the movement of particles from the area of high concentration to the area of low concentration across the plasma membrane without the use of energy is called PASSIVE TRANSPORT.
When it comes to movement of particles into cells, there are two basic types of transportation, these are active and passive transport. The active transport system needs energy in form of ATP to move the particles across the cell membranes while the passive transport system does not require energy. The rate at which active transport occur usually depend on the permeability of the cell membrane. There are four examples of passive transport, these are: simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis and filteration.  <span />

<span>The correct answer is option C. The passive transport is a process which is characterized by the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across the plasma membrane without the use of energy because, its particle move by themselves due to entropy. Whereas, active transport requires energy to move form low concentration to higher concentration..</span>

andre [41]

Answer:

diverse proteins embedded in a phospholipid bilayer

Explanation:

According to fluid mosaic model the cell membrane is made of bilayer of phospholipid. Many proteins are embedded in this bi layer. Carbohydrate and cholesterol are also found in different forms. Carbohydrate can either be attached to the embedded protein in which case it is called as glycoprotein or it can be connected to the lipid molecule in layer and called as glycolipid.

Proteins can be found in two forms too. They can either be embedded in the layer i.e. they can penetrate single or both layers. These proteins are called as integral proteins. They can also be present on one side of the membrane and not penetrate the lipid bilayer in which case they are called as peripheral proteins.

Which cellular structure makes it possible for a cell to differ structurally and biochemically from its surroundings?
11111nata11111 [884]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>A plasma membrane is the cellular structure that makes it possible for a cell to differ structurally and biochemically from its surroundings. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Plasma membrane</em> is the surrounding of all the cells. The function of plasma membrane in a cell is to regulate the incoming and outgoing elements from the cell.

<em>Phospholipid bilayer</em> is the main composition of plasma membrane. It makes the cell different from each other structurally as well as makes the cell different in <em>chemical composition </em>too.
