Q

Diffusion of Liquids

A

Eventually food coloring will distribute into all parts of the water
Stirring mixture adds energy into solution.
Ex. Fart Gas diffuses across the room and even goes into low concentration areas such as the hallway

A
Water channels
Protein pores used during osmosis
Channels that leaves you go in and out of the cell membrane

Q

Carrier proteins

A

an change shape to move material from one side of the membrane to the other
They bond and drag molecules through the lipid bilayer and release them on the opposite side.

Q

Active transport

A

Requires energy or ATp
Moves from low to high concentration
Against concentration gradient
Similar to how it takes more energy to move when people are moving toward you and you bump into them

Q

Receptor mediated Endocytosis

A

Some integral proteins have receptors on their surface to recognize and take in hormones and cholesterol etc.
Join to together and bring all things in at a time
Ex. To bring all the bird in you would need a bird feeder.
