- 5.1: Passive and Facilitated Diffusion
- This chapter will discuss diffusion processes. First, diffusion equations will be derived for cases not involving a binding receptor. Next we will derive equations for receptor-mediated diffusion across a membrane - facilitated diffusion. We will deal with the situation when the solute must be transported up a concentration gradient, a process called active transport.
