17
Q

Cell membrane is made of what 2 things?

A

Phospholipids- makes the membrane into fluid and able to move
Protein parts- found within, on the surface, or the bottom of the membrane

18
Q

What is the cell membrane described as?

A

Selectively permeable

19
Q

What does passive transport mean?

A

Passive transport occurs down a concentration gradient and does not require energy

20
Q

What does selectively permeable mean?

A

Selects which molecules enter and exit, based on their size to pass the membrane

21
Q

Explain a selectively permeable membrane

A

Starch cant eneter because its too big
Carbon dioxide, glucose, water and urea can eneter and exit because there small enough
