Moving particles without using a cell's energy

• Homeostasis
• Cellular Respiration
• Exocytosis
• Passive Transport

Moving particles while using a cell's energy

• Osmosis
• Diffusion
• Photosynthesis
• Active Transport

A type of active transport that releases particles that were enclosed from a cell when the membrane of the vesicle fuses with that of the cell membrane

• Exocytosis
• Osmosis
• Mitosis
• Endoyctosis

A type of passive transport that moves particles from high concentration to low concentration; like the iodine into the cornstarch bag

• Exocytosis
• Osmosis
• Diffusion
• Endoyctosis

A type of active transport that brings particles into a cell when the cell membrane encloses a particle to make a vesicle

• Diffusion
• Passive Transport
• Active Transport
• Endocytosis

A type of passive transport that occurs when water crosses a cell membrane; like water entering raisin cells
