Lecture 5 Flashcards
diffusion
movement of any substance other than water from an area of greater concentration to an area of lesser concentration
osmosis
same as diffusion but with water
facilitated diffusion
same as diffusion but with help. for example with the protein channel
active transport
requires energy to move something from an area with lesser concnetration to an area with greater concentration
vesicular transport (phagocytosis & pinocytosis & endocytosis)
takes things into the cell
what are types of endocytosis
phagocytosis & pinocytosis
phagocytosis
cell eating something
pinocytosis
cell drinking (taking in fluid)
exocytosis
to push out of the cell
location of membrane junctions
top junction- top of cell
desmosome- middle of cell
gap junction- bottom of cell
