Active and Passive Transport | Back to Top. Passive transport requires no energy from the cell. Examples include the diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide, osmosis of water, and facilitated diffusion. Types of passive transport.
of cytoplasm contained within the cell membrane. from the membrane to the center of the cell by diffusion. there must be an adequate ratio between the cellâs surface area and its volume. simplest model of cell shape) gets larger, its volume increases at a different rate than its surface area. In this lab, we will investigate this relationship and how it affects diffusion time. The prime limitation to cell size is the limitation imposed by diffusion. Diffusion is a very slow process. If a cell were 20 cm (~8 inches), it would take days for nutrients to reach its center or for wastes to reach the cell membrane. The cell would quickly starve to death or poison itself with its own wastes. So whatâs the solution, if a cell approaches its maximum size? Itâs time to divide! If cells receive the proper signals, they will divide by mitosis before they become too big. PART 1 In this lab activity, you will use agar cubes as cell models.
