Unit 1.2 Transport Across Cell Membranes Flashcards
The cell membrane consists of ____________ and ________________________
Proteins,phospholipids
The cell membrane is ______________ ______________
Selectively permeable
What is passive transport
Passive transport occurs down a concentration gradient and does not require energy
What is diffusion
Diffusion is the movement of molecules down a concentration gradient from a higher to a lower concentration
What is osmosis
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a higher water concentration to a lower water concentration through a selectively permeable membrane
What will the animal cell happen when the higher water concentration enters the cell
The cell will swells up and bursts
What will the animal cell happen when the lower water concentration exits the cell
The cell shrinks
What is active transport
Active transport requires energy for membrane proteins to move molecules and ions against the concentration gradient
Is diffusion active or passive
Passive
Is diffusion with or against concentration gradient
With concentration gradient
What are the molecules of diffusion
Glucose,O2,CO2
Is osmosis active or passive
Passive
Is osmosis with or against concentration gradient
With concentration gradient
What is the molecule of osmosis
Water
Is active transport active or passive
Active
