A)facilitated diffusion
B)diffusion
C)endocytosis
D)osmosis

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Endocytosis is a process by which cells take in extracellular material by engulfing it with their plasma membrane, forming a vesicle. This process requires energy in the form of ATP to power the movement of the plasma membrane and the formation of the vesicle. Facilitated diffusion and diffusion do not require the use of ATP, as they are passive processes that rely on concentration gradients to move molecules across a membrane. Osmosis, similarly, is a passive process that involves the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane, and does not require the use of ATP.
