Types of Transport Review
The movement of particles against the direction of diffusion. ACTIVE TRANSPORT
The movement of particles from high to low concentration. DIFFUSION
The diffusion of water across a cell membrane. OSMOSIS
The movement of a substance from high to low concentration without energy. PASSIVE TRANSPORT
Type of membrane that allows ALL substances to pass through it. PERMEABLE
Type of membrane that allows only SOME substances to pass through it. SEMI-PERMEABLE (selectively)
A type of membrane that allows NO substances to pass through it. IMPERMEABLE
How does a water molecule enter and exit a cell? OSMOSIS
How does a sugar molecule enter and exit a cell? ACTIVE TRANSPORT
Can you identify two differences between active and passive transport? TYPE OF SUBSTANCES CONCENTRATION GRADIENT ENERGY – YES or NO?
PASSIVE TRANSPORT DIFFUSION OSMOSIS Can you identify the methods of transport that do NOT require energy by the cell? PASSIVE TRANSPORT DIFFUSION OSMOSIS
What factors can control the rate of diffusion? TYPE OF MEMBRANE CONCENTRATION GRADIENT SIZE OF SUBSTANCE TEMPERATURE ACTIVITY LEVEL
In what direction do substances naturally travel? HIGH TO LOW CONCENTRATION
What cell structure controls diffusion and osmosis? CELL MEMBRANE
Your life depends on . . . Active Transport!
