|
Active Transport
|
Movement of substances across the cell membrane using energy (ATP)
|
|
|
Passive Transport
|
Movement of substances across the cell membrane without using energy
|
|
|
Diffusion
|
Movement of substances across the cell membrane from higher concentration to lower concentration (passive transport)
|
|
|
Facilitated Diffusion
|
Movement of substances across the cell membrane from higher concentration to lower concentration through a protein channel (passive transport)
|
|
|
Osmosis
|
Movement of WATER across the cell membrane from higher concentration to lower concentration (passive transport)
|
|
|
Isotonic
|
The concentration of water inside and outside the cell is the same - water moves in and out of the cell
|
|
|
Hypotonic
|
The concentration of water is higher OUTSIDE the cell (concentration of solute is lower) - water moves into the cell
|
|
|
Hypertonic
|
The concentration of water is higher INSIDE the cell (concentration of solute is lower) - water moves out of the cell
|
|
|
Membrane Pump
|
Substances are moved across the cell membrane using a membrane pump (active transport)
|
|
|
Endocytosis
|
Substances are moved into the cell by folding in of the membrane (active transport)
|
|
|
Phagocytosis
|
Particles are moved into the cell by folding in of the membrane (active transport)
|
|
|
Pinocytosis
|
Liquids are moved into the cell by folding in of the membrane (active transport)
|
|
|
Receptor Mediated Endocytosis
|
Substances are moved into the cell by the binding of membrane receptors and the folding in of the membrane (active transport)
|
|
|
Exocytosis
|
Substances are moved out of the cell by the fusing of vacuoles with the cell membrane (active transport)
|
