Cellular Absorption Flashcards
What two types of cellular absorption have a carrier molecule
Facilitated diffusion and active transport
What two types of cellular absorption happens with a concentration gradient from high to low
Passive diffusion and facilitated diffusion
What type of cellular absorption occurs against a concentration gradient from low to high
Active transport
Because active transport, cellular absorption flows from low to high, it allows ________________
Accumulation
What are the factors of facilitated diffusion
- Lipophilic/ hydrophilic
- Small/ larger
- Non ionic/ ionic
Cellular absorption described as cell drinking of fluids and molecules
Pinocytosis
Do pinocytosis and phagocytosis require energy
yes
What does Pinocytosis do to the cell membrane
Decreases the surface area
Cellular absorption described as cell eating of solid objects
Phagocytosis
What does phagocytosis do to the cell membrane
Decreases the surface area
