When solute particles move across a membrane by diffusion: Group of answer choices Different solutes eventually end up on opposite sides of the membrane. The solute concentration must be different between the two sides of the membrane, or there will be no movement at all. Random collisions of molecules result in movement from high concentration to low concentration. A source of chemical energy is needed to drive the process.

If a solute is moving through a phospholipid bilayer from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration without the assistance of a protein, the manner of transport must be any of these answers are correct: It depends on the solute simple diffusion active transport solutes cannot cross phospholipid bilayers facilitated diffusion
