Cell Transport Flashcards
Passive Transport
The movement of materials from high to low concentration
Active Transport
The movement of materials from low to high concentration
Energy
What is needed for active transport but not for passive transport
Osmosis
The movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane
Hypotonic
A solution with a lower solute concentration
Hypertonic
A solution with a higher solute concentration
Isotonic
A solution with an equal solute concentration
When does swelling occur
What will happen to the cell if placed in a hypotonic solution
When will shrinking occur
What will happen to the cell if placed in a hypertonic solution
Endocytosis
Active transport which moves materials into the cell
Exocytosis
Active transport which moves materials out of the cell
Where is the site of cellular respiration
Mitochondria
What coenzymes are needed for cellular respiration
NAD and FAD
what do NAD and FAD carry
H+ and High energy elections
from glycolysis and the citric acid cycle
What is Electron Support Chain
they are enzymes used for energy from elections to pump H+ into the inter membrane space
