Facilitated Diffusion

Back 27

Uses membrane proteins that function as carriers to move molecules across the cell membrane

Osmosis

Back 28

A special case of diffusion in which water moves from an area of greater water concentration across a selectively permeable membrane to an area of lower water concentration

Front 29

Active Transport

Back 29

Uses ATP to move molecules from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration through carrier molecules in cell membranes.

Epithelial Tissue

Front 33

Connective Tissue
