Membrane Transpport

Front 1

What forms of membrane transport are there

Back 1

Simple diffusion;
Facilitated diffusion and;
Active transport.

Front 2

Describe passive membrane transport.

Back 2

This transport depends on how much there is of a concentration in each region of the membrane, if the concentration of a solute is low in one region then molecules will travel there.

Front 3

Describe facilitated membrane transport.

Back 3

This transport uses protein channels, by stimulating the protein channel in order to allow the solute to pass by.

Front 4

Describe active transport.

Back 4

Active transport uses ATP in order to move a solute against its gradient by using carrier proteins.

Front 5

Name the different carrier proteins.

Back 5

Uniport, allows one molecules form of molecule to pass in one direction.
Symport allow two different molecules to pass in one direction.
Anti ports allow two different molecules to pass in one different direction.
Anti ports allow

Front 6

Describe secondary active transport.

Back 6

Secondary active transport take advantage of another molecules gradient to transport its molecule with the other molecules current.

Front 7

What is endocytosis?

Back 7

The cell Membrane engulfs molecules.

Front 8

What is exocytosis?

Back 8

The cell membrane expels molecules.

Front 9

Wha is phagocytosis?

Back 9

The cell membrane surrounds the molecules.
