Transport And Metabolism And Dna Flashcards
Active transport
This move substances across the membrane from a region of low concentration to high concentration with energy ATP
Three types of passive transport
Diffusion, osmosis and facilitated diffusion
Diffusion
The movement of substances from a region of high concentration to low concentration
Osmosis
The movement of water from a region of high concentration to low concentration
Facilitated diffusion
The movement of substances from high to low with the help of transport protein
Passive transport
This move substances across the membrane or regions of high concentration to low concentration without energy
Cellular respiration
A process that turns sugar(glucose) into usable energy for the cell (ATP)
Photosynthesis
A process that turns the light energy from the sun into food for plants
Base pairs
Adenine matches with thymine
guanine matches with cytosine
DNA
Double helix
Rna
Single stranded
Uracil takes place of thymine
Transcription
Making RNA from DNA
Translation
Proteins from mRNA
