Question
Chapter 2, Problem 5TOF
Summary Introduction
To Determine:
Whether the given statement "Water- soluble materials generally pass through the channel proteins to enter a cell" is true or false.
Introduction:
Facilitated diffusion is also known as carrier-mediated osmosis. It is the movement of molecules through the cell membrane by the special type of transport proteins. These proteins are fixed in the plasma membrane that works dynamically by accepting up or excluding ions.
