Movement Through Plasma Membrane Flashcards
no energy used
Passive transport
energy used
Active transport
random movement of molecules results in net movement from areas of higher to lower concentration
Simple diffusion of passive transport
process where water moves from an area of volume of high water concentration to a volume of low water concentration through a selective permeable membrane
Osmosis
carrier proteins combine with substances and move them across the plasma membrane
Facilitated diffusion
of passive transport
no ATP is used; substances are always moved from areas of higher to lower concentration
Facilitated diffusion
of passive transport
it exhibits the characteristics of specificity, saturation, and competition
Facilitated diffusion of passive transport
transport with the utilization of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
Active transport
ATP-powered pumps combine with substances and move them across the plasma membrane
Active transport
ATP is used
Active transport
substances can be moved from areas of lower to higher concentration
Active transport
Vesicular transport of Active transport
Endocytosis and Exocytosis
plasma membrane forms a vesicle around the substances to be transported, and the vesicle is taken into the cell
Endocytosis
Endocytosis & Exocytosis
requires ___
ATP
In ___, specific substances are ingested
receptor-mediated endocytosis
