What are the three modes for passive transport? |
Diffusion l, Dialysis & Osmosis |
|
Brownian movement |
The driving force for all forms of passive transport |
|
Does temperature affect brownian movement? |
Yes, the higher the temperature, the greater the kinetic energy, the faster the rate of brownian movement |
|
Diffusion |
The movement of any Substance from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration |
|
What is the rate of diffusion dependent on? |
Temperature, molecular weight of the molecules being transported and the concentration of the particles that are diffusing |
|
Dynamic Equilibrium |
No net movement of Molecules occurred |
|
Dialysis |
The separation of dissolved solids by a selectively permeable membrane |
|
Osmosis |
The movement of water from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration through a selectively permeable membrane |
|
How do you find surface area? |
Length x Width x Number of sides |
|
How do you find Volume? |
Length x Width x Height |
