Cell Transport Flashcards
Passive Transport
The movement of substances through a membrane without cells energy
Active Transport
Controls the movement of substances into and out of cells
3 types of passive Transport
Diffusion
Osmosis
Facilitated diffusion
Diffusion
Movement of substances from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
Osmosis
The diffusion of water molecules only through a membrane
Facilitated Diffusion
Molecule pass through a cell membrane using special proteins
Transport proteins
Carrier protein
Channel protein
Carrier protein
Carry large molecules
Channel proteins
Atomic particles - sodium ion
Active Transport
Movement of substances through a cell membrane using cells energy
From which concentration
Lower to higher
Endocytosis
The process during which a cell takes in a substances by surrounding it with the cell membrane
Exocytosis
The prices during which a cell’s vesicles release their contents outside the cell
What will happen to a red blood cell if us places in distilled water?
Water will diffuse into the red blood cell and will burst
What type of Transport is that
Passive transport ( higher to lower)
