    In this video, we look at the process of active transport. First, we compare this to diffusion and look at the key differences. Then we explore two examples of active transport that you need to know, one in animals and one in plants.
    This video is based on the AQA spec. If you are following a different exam board then you should check your specification. The Amazon link above is an affiliate link.

    just wanted to say thanks for helping me get 3 A's in my science gcse's, your short but totally relevant videos which always get straight to the point made science revision far more efficient allowing me to revise for other things too. if you're yet to do your gcse's make sure to do past papers and questions to make sure you understand everything and good luck to everyone

    Hey sir, I'd just like to say thank you for making your videos and flashcards, I got my results on the 24th and got an A* in both physics and chem (but a B in bio) and my target grades were only As and before watching your videos i found it hard to revise science. I wanted to ask if it would be worth it to get the my biology remarked since I was 4 UMS off an A (and i somehow got a b and c in between an a and a* in the individual papers-i definitley thought the exams went better than that and this was the only overall B grade i got out of As and A*s) i used the same revision method for chem and physics so it was a bit of a shock to see my bio grade, im a bit too high into the B grade to drop down 36 UMS so i just dont know!! do remarks help or not?

    • @Freesciencelessons
      @Freesciencelessons  6 років тому +12

      Hi. Well done on your grades. I can't really give advice on remarks so the first thing I would do is advise you to talk to your teachers. However, as you've said, you'd have to drop 36 UMS to drop to a C, so what do you have to lose (apart from the remark fee)? Good luck.

  • @noors529
    @noors529 5 років тому +2

    Hi sir,
    Sorry I'm just confused when I compare the net movement of particles of active transport to osmosis. So when you mean 'Active transport moves substances from a more dilute solution to a concentrated solution' isn't this basically osmosis? So what is the need to move it against the concentration gradient with energy when the spontaneous process is already happening without the input of energy? OR Do we not use osmosis for root hair cells & absorption of glucose because osmosis only relates to the movement of water molecules?
    2) I thought diffusion processes were involved when digested food products move from gut to the bloodstream, as the intestine has a concentration of high nutrients, in comparison to the bloodstream. When talking about active transport in relation of the absorption of sugars, is it only sugars that are ACTIVELY TRANSPORTED and the rest is DIFFUSED, such as fats & soluble nutrients can move directly across the lipid membrane?
    Thank you

    • @Freesciencelessons
      @Freesciencelessons  5 років тому +2

      Hi. Osmosis specifically refers to water molecules and not anything else. For question 2, both active transport and diffusion will be used to move the products of digestion. Even though there is a higher concentration in the digestive system than in the blood, the transport must be very rapid, so both diffusion and active transport will be used. Hope that helps.

    Very helpful video but there is one question I would like to ask: Since there is a high concentration of glucose in the small intestine cells, and a low concentration in the bloodstream, would you still need active transport to transport glucose into the bloodstream, or could glucose just diffuse into the bloodstream?

      Same for the root hair cell(root hair cell to xylem vessel)

      im not shaun but i can say that it would just naturally diffuse into the blood stream which is the same with the root hair cell and also similar to gas exchange in the lungs

    Are the ions from within the root hair cell transported to the xylem by diffusion? Likewise with the sugar transporting to the bloodstream.

      Yes although probably a mixture of diffusion and active transport. Sugar transports into the bloodstream by active transport (diffusion would be too slow).

    I don't get it at 1:11
    The particles go from higher to low concentration but have unequal particles on both sides
    I thought the some particles will go to the low area of concentration so that
    number of particles will be equal on both sides. So like equilibrium.
    Sir plz explain

    • @Freesciencelessons
      @Freesciencelessons  3 роки тому +6

      Normally, particles will diffuse from a high concentration to a low concentration until the concentration is equal. This does not require any energy input. However, if we want to move particles from a low concentration to a high concentration then we can. This is called active transport and this does require an energy input.

    bruh literally before i watched this, i thought active transport was where proteins gets made and transferred lol

    What does it mean by against the concentration gradient?

    • @mrkoicarp9539
      @mrkoicarp9539 5 років тому +1

      If it is with the gradient it is from high to low but against is from low to high!!! Hope that helps.
