Lesson 9- Membrane Transport Flashcards
Passive Transport
diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis
Diffusion
molecules move from high to low concentration, no energy is used, only small uncharged particles can diffuse across membrane, moves randomly
Facilitated Diffusion
uses carrier pr- to move large molecules across membrane, moves high to low concentration, no energy is used
Osmosis
isotonic, hypotonic, hypertonic. the movement of water, no energy used, uses aquaporins to move polar substances across the bilayer
Isotonic
the solute concentration is the same on inside and outside of the cell
Hypotonic
the solute concentration is more inside the cell and less outside, h2o moves from environment to cell
Hypertonic
the solute concentration is less inside the cell and more outside, h2o moves from cell to environment (shrink)
Active Transport
protein pumps, endocytosis, and exocytosis
Protein Pumps
carrier pr-s move molecules agaisnt the concentration gradient, requires energy
Endocytosis
moves large molecules into the cell, requires energy to move molecules with or agaisnt the gradient (pinocytosis, phagocytosis, and R-A endocytosis)
Pinocytosis
cell drinking. moves small particles of extracellular fluid and dissolved particles into the cell (intestines)
Phagocytosis
cell eating. moves large droplets of extracellular fluid along with the large particles into the cell (white blood cells)
Receptor-Assisted Endocytosis
specific molecules attract pr- molecules on the cell membrane and triggers the intake of the molecules via endocytosis
Exocytosis
used to move large molecules out of the cell, requires energy to move molecules with or agaisnt the gradient
