CELLS AND THEIR ENVIRONMENTS OSMOSIS CELLS AND THEIR ENVIRONMENTS
DIFFUSION The random movement of particles.
DIFFUSION IS.... Particles move from greater concentration to lesser concentration or from great % to less %
KEY WORDS OF DIFFUSION PASSIVE TRANSPORT CONCENTRATION GRADIENT (%HI -> %LOW) EQUILIBRIUM
WHAT IS OSMOSIS????
WHAT CONDITIONS CAUSE OSMOSIS???? HYPOTONIC------ISOTONIC------HYPERTONIC
HYPOTONIC: Water moves INTO the cell (like blowing up a balloon) ISOTONIC: water moves both directions HYPERTONIC: water moves out of the cell (dehydration)
PASSIVE TRANSPORT Passive transport does NOT require energy by the cell osmosis & diffusion facilitated diffusion
Ion (gated) channels
ACTIVE TRANSPORT CARRIER MOLECULES: cell energy required!
Endocytosis = cell eating
Exocytosis = cell EXCRETING
