Which of the following best explains how molecules such as o2 and co2 can move across the membrane?

1 Answer. Oxygen and carbon dioxide move across cell membranes via simple diffusion, a process that requires no energy input and is driven by differences in concentration on either side of the cell membrane.

Why can oxygen gas O 2 and carbon dioxide gas CO 2 move through the cell membrane?

Because the cell membrane is semipermeable, only small, uncharged substances like carbon dioxide and oxygen can easily diffuse across it. Charged ions or large molecules require different kinds of transport.

When gases like c02 02 move across the cell membrane This process is called?

Gases like carbon dioxide and oxygen cross the membrane by the process of diffusion and move from the region of higher concentration to that of lower concentration across the cell membrane.

Can co2 O C O & o2 o/o can pass through a membrane lipid bilayer by diffusion?

Consider substances that can easily diffuse through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane, such as the gases oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2). These small, fat soluble gasses and other small lipid soluble molecules can dissolve in the membrane and enter or exit the cell following their concentration gradient.
