Circulation Within A Cell Flashcards
Brownian movement
Spreading or movement of particles throughout cytoplasm by kinetic energy created by collisions
Intracellular circulation
1 brownian movement
2 cyclosis or streaming
3 endoplasmic reticulum
Cyclosis or streaming
Circular motion of cytoplasm around cell transport molecules
ER
Provides channels throughout the cytoplasm and provides direct continuous passageway from plasma membrane to nuclear membrane
Extracellular circulation types
1 diffusion
2 circulatory system
Diffusion
If cells are in close contact with the environment diffusion can transport food from the enviromnent to the cells
Circulatory system
For complex animals whose cells are too far from external enviromment
-includes vesicles to transport fluids amd a pump to drive the circulation
