Diffusion, Osomosis And Active Transport Flashcards
1
Q
Diffusion
A
Net movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
2
Q
Osmosis
A
Net movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration to an area of lower concentration
3
Q
Active Transport
A
Movement of particles across a membrane against a concentration gradient (area of lower concentration to a higher conc) using energy transferred during respiration.
