What is a major difference between facilitated diffusion and active transport?
question 3 options:

active transport moves substances against the concentration gradient.

active transport uses proteins in the process.

facilitated diffusion moves molecules through the plasma membrane.

facilitated diffusion requires large amounts of energy.

The correct option is A. Active transport moves substances against the concentration gradient.

Explanation:

Active transport can be described as a transport mechanism in which molecules tend to move against the concentration gradient i.e from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration. Energy is needed for this process to occur.

Facilitated diffusion can be described as a phenomenon is which molecules move along the concentration gradient i.e from a higher concentration to a lower concentration with the help of trans- membrane integral proteins

the framers of the constitution insisted that federal judges be nominated instead of elected due to their desire to have judges above the shifting whims of the masses.

the hope, whether achieved or not, was that federal judges would only be beholden to the law and that by not having judges be elected, they would be protected if that law dictated an outcome that ran counter to popular opinion.
