1
New cards

active transport

uses energy and goes against the concentration gradient

2
New cards

passive transport

no energy and follows the concentration gradient

3
New cards

hypotonic

the process of water going into a cell to make the cell swell

4
New cards

hypertonic

the process of water leaving a cell to make the cell shrink

5
New cards

isotonic

the process of the water mass staying the same while the molecules move in and out in an equillibrium

6
New cards

endocytosis

the process of proteins being brought in from energy (active transport)

7
New cards

exocytosis

the process of proteins being taken out by energy (active transport)

8
New cards

water, glucose, protein

components of life smallest to biggest that are transported through cell membranes

9
New cards

glucose

a sugar that is transported through the membrane through facilitated diffusion (passive)

10
New cards

carbon dioxide and oxygen

gases that transport across the membrane through simple diffusion

11
New cards

protein

a molecule that passes through the membrane by endo and exocytosis (active) bc they are too big

12
New cards

ions

charged molecules that transport through the membrane by facilitated diffusion or pumps

13
New cards

simple diffusion

gases, small nonpolar, no energy, passive, high to low concentration

14
New cards

facilitated diffusion

big molecules, glucose, passive, high to low concentration, no energy

15
New cards

osmosis

water only, passive, high to low conc., no energy

16
New cards

endo and exocytosis

uses energy, active, low to high concentration, proteins

17
New cards

pumps

active, low to high concentration, charged molecules
