Cell Transportation Review!!!

Front

What is the process called that focuses on the movement of water through a membrane?

Back

Osmosis

Front

What is the term for the movement of large substances from inside the cell to the outside?

Back

Exocytosis

Front

In simple diffusion, small molecules are moved through which part of the cell membrane?

Back

Phospholipid bilayer

Front

What type of transport do endocytosis and exocytosis represent?

Back

Active transport

Front

What is facilitated diffusion?

Back

The movement of large, polar molecules through membrane proteins.

Front

What is the primary difference between passive and active transport?

Back

Passive transport does not require energy, while active transport requires energy.

Front

What are the two main types of passive transport?

Back

Diffusion and osmosis.

Front

What role do membrane proteins play in facilitated diffusion?

Back

They help transport large, polar molecules across the membrane.

Front

What is the significance of the phospholipid bilayer in cell transport?

Back

It acts as a barrier that regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell.

Front

What is endocytosis?

Back

The process by which cells take in large substances by engulfing them.
