Chapter 3: cells Flashcards
includes phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and a receptor- mediated form.
Endocytosis
Driven by kinetic energy of the molecules
Diffusion simple and Diffusion osmosis
Provides for cellular uptake of solid or large particles from the cell exterior
Endocytosis
Require ATP (cellular energy)
Endocytosis, Exocytosis, and solute pumping
Moves small or lipid-solute solutes through the membrane
Diffusion, simple
Driven by hydrostatic (fluid pressure)
Filtration
Transports amino acids and Na+ through the plasma membrane
Solute pumping
A means of secreting cell products
Exocytosis
Moves water through a semipermeable membrane
Diffusion, osmosis
Proceeds against a concentration gradient; require(s) a carrier
Solute pumping
Follow a concentration gradient
Diffusion, simple and Diffusion, osmosis
