C2 Passive + active Flashcards
1
Q
Diffusion
A
Small/non polar molecules move directly across the membrane (high to low)
2
Q
Facilitated diffusion (Channel mediated)
A
Large/polar molecules + charged ions, uses ion channel proteins
3
Q
Facilitated diffusion (carrier-mediated)
A
Shape + chemically specific polar molecules uses carrier proteins
4
Q
Active transport
A
Molecules or ions move across cell membrane with energy (low to high)
Ex. Using carrier proteins requiring ATP for larger molecules
