9
New cards

Simple Diffusion is when things trying to move across are small enough to pass in between phospholipids without __.

using energy.

New cards

Active transport is transportation __ use of energy (ATP).

WITH.

13
New cards

Equilibrium is when the concentration is at an __ balance between the solute and solvent.

equal.

New cards

Glycoprotein

proteins with one or more sugar molecules attatched

32
New cards

peripheral proteins

membrane proteins that are attached to the surface of the membrane but do not penetrate the bilayer
