Describe the 4 ways of transport mechanisms across the cell membrane
|
Diffusion
movement of a solute from an area of higher concentration to lower Osmosis the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane Carrier Mediated the movem of a subs. across a membrane by means of a carrier molecule Endocytosis & Exocytosis endocytosis is the movement of materials into cells by the formation of a vesicle exocytosis is the secretion of materials from cells by vesicle formation. |
|

|
Prophase
Metaphase Anaphase Telophase |
|
Describe the metaphase stage of mitosis
