active transport Flashcards
1
Q
primary active transport
A
Use of active transport pumps to move ions across membranes
2
Q
secondary active transport
A
Uses the concentration gradient of an ion, created by the 1st pump, as its energy source
3
Q
symport
A
a solute moves through the membrane channel
in same direction as driving ion
4
Q
antiport
A
driving ions move through membrane in one direction, providing energy for active transport of another solute in the opposite direction
5
Q
what is exocytosis
A
large molecules held within the cell are transported to the external environment (exit)
6
Q
what are different types of endocytosis
A
pinocytosis and phagocytosis
7
Q
pinocytosis
A
cells engulf extracellular water and any other molecules in the solution
8
Q
phagocytosis
A
cells engulf solid particles/ bacteria
