Passive Transport

Front

What is it called when molecules move across the cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration through a carrier protein?

Back

Facilitated Diffusion

Front

This process uses energy.

Back

Active Transport (includes endocytosis and exocytosis)

Front

Solutes move with the concentration gradient, therefore no energy is used.

Front

What is the role of carrier proteins in facilitated diffusion?

Back

They help transport specific substances across the cell membrane without using energy.

Front

What is endocytosis?

Back

The process by which cells take in substances by engulfing them.
