1
New cards

Passive Transport

The use of Brownian movement to move substances across cell membranes. Does not require energy

2
New cards

Brownian movement

Movement from a higher concentration to lower concentration using kinetic energy.

3
New cards

Dialysis

The separation of small and large molecules

4
New cards

Isotonic solution

Equalibrium- 0.9% NaCl

5
New cards

Hypotonic solution

Less than 0.9% NaCl, cell ruptures

6
New cards

Hypertonic solution

Greater than 0.9%NaCl, cell shrinks due to dehydration

7
New cards

4 factors on diffusion

  1. Temperature, 2. Concentration, 3. Molecular size, 4. Viscosity

8
New cards

Active transport

The use of energy to cross a cell membrane. Primary uses energy directly, secondary indirectly uses energy
