27
Water fearing molecules which do not mix well with charged or polar molecules
Hydrophobic
28
Refers to a solution that is the same concentration when compared to another solution
Isotonic
29
A ____ protein only passes part way through the lipid bilateral of the cell membrane
Periferal
30
This type of protein transport requires ATP as an energy source
Active
31

Glycolipid
32
Water loving molecules which mix well with polar or charged molecules
Hydrophilic
33
The raw of diffusion can be increased by increasing the ____ gradient

44
A ___ protein allows a particular ion or molecule to pass through it with the concentration gradient and without the use of ATP
Channel
