28
Channel protein:
Protein with channel through the middle, usually for charged particles
29
Carrier protein:
For larger molecules (eg. Glucose)
30
Aquaporins:
For water to transport through membrane
31
Active transport means
Moves substances against gradient
32
Active trabsport uses what proteins?
Protein pumps
33
Protein pumps use:
ATP
34
Electromagnetic pump:

35
Electro pump for animal cells
Sodium-Potassium pump
36
Electro pump for plants, fungi, and bacteria
Proton pump
37
Bulk transport
Moves large molecules across membrane in vesicles
38
Three types of endocytosis

39
Phagocytosis:
Large particles are taken in
40
Pinocytosis
Tiny droplets of extracellular fluid on taken in
41
Receptor-mediated Endocytosis
Allows cell to aquire bulk of specific substances
