Active VS Passive Transport Flashcards
1
Q
What are the two types of cell transport?
A
Active transport and Passive transport
2
Q
What is Active transport?
A
Energy required, Against concentration gradient, From low to high
Examples: Phagocytosis and pinocytosis
3
Q
What is Passive transport?
A
No energy required, Down the concentration gradient, From high to low
Examples: Diffusion and Osmosis
4
