Movement of substances across a cell membrane using energy
|
active transport
|
|
Movement of a substance across a cell membrane without the use of energy, from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration
|
Passive Transport
|
|
Passive transport by the random diffusion through the cell.
|
Simple Diffusion
|
|
Passive transport across a cell membrane with the assistance of a protein that changes shape.
|
Facilitated Diffusion
|
|
Give some examples of Simple diffusion
|
Lipid soluble and small hydrophilic molecules
hydrophobic through the bilayer Hydrophilic through protein pores |
|
Give an example of facilitated diffusion
|
Glucose
down a concentration gradient, but much faster than simple diffusion |
|
Explain Active transport
|
energy from ATP is use to change the shape of an integral protein (Na/K) pump.
