Diffusion

random movement of particles from high to low concentration

diffusion continues until equilibrium is reached

2
New cards

facilitated diffusion

diffusion of specific particles through transport proteins found in the membrane 

  • Transports larger or charged molecules

  • Ex. Ion Channel: a transport protein with a polar pore; ions pass through

  • Ex. Carrier Protein: attach to a molecule on the outside of the cell, transport it across the membrane, release it on the other side
