Biology Dec Bim Flashcards
Simple diffusion is :
a type of passive transport
Passive transports occurs when :
When substances cross the plasma membrane without energy
When it occurs facilitated diffusion:
When molecules need help to pass through
Facilitated diffusion have 2 types of proteins
What types ?
Channel & carrier
Channel proteins :
Form pores or tiny holes
Carrier :
Bind with specific ions or molecules
Is a type of Simple diffusion :
Osmosis
When it occurs active transport:
When energy is need for a substance to move across a plasma membrane (with energy)
Example of active transport:
Sodium potassium pump
What is vesicle transport?
Transport required energy
Examples of vesicle transport:
Endocytosis & exocytosis
Plants obtain glucose by :
Photosynthesis
Humans obtain glucose by:
Eating sugars
They are 2 types of molecules :
Glucose and ATP
What is glucose?
Is the end of photosynthesis , and stores and transports energy life processes inside cells .
