Transport Across Cell Membrane Flashcards
Hydrophobic
regions within the cell
Hydrophillic
regions outside the cell
Going into the cell
all fuel substances and raw materials necessary for life
Going out of the cell
waste and cellular secretions
Outer plasma membrane
allows substances into and out of the cell
Inner cell membrane
