1 The Cell in its Environment
Chapter 1, Section 4 p

2 Passive Transport The movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without using cellular energy Osmosis Diffusion

3 Diffusion process by which molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration

4 Diffusion continued… What causes Diffusion? Diffusion of Oxygen
More molecules = more collisions Eventually, molecules will be evenly spread out Diffusion of Oxygen Cell membrane is permeable to oxygen molecules, same as regular diffusion

5 Osmosis diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane
See Image below (9)

6 Active Transport Requires the cell to use its own energy
Transport Proteins- pick up molecules outside the cell and carry them in, and also carry stuff out of cell Engulfing- surrounds membrane and encloses around a particle and kind of absorbs it

7 Active and Passive Transportation
See image below (10)
