Substances move up there concentration gradient through phospholipid Byler

A

Active transport

20
Q

Cell engulfs substance by forming vesicle around substance

A

Endocytosis

21
Q

What are the three types of endocytosis and what do they mean

A

Pinocytosis – substance is mostly water
Phagocytosis – substance is a solid
Receptor mediated endocytosis – requires the substance to bind to a membrane bound receptor

22
Q

Contents released outside the cell
Example release of neurotransmitter from nerve cells

A

Exocytosis

23
