Active and passive transportation
Question | Answer |
---|---|
What happens when a cell is placed in hypotonic solution? | The water will move into the cell causing the cell to swell and maybe burst. |
What is the main difference between Active and Passive Transport? | Passive Transport moves the molecule down towards the cell concentration gradient and Active Transport moves the molecules against the cell concentration gradient. |
Whats an example of Active Transport? | Sodium-Potassium pump |
The process that moves molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration that requires no energy is? | Diffusion |
What happens when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution? | The water will leave the cell causing the cell to shrink and shrivel. |
To keep cells intact they need to be placed in... | isotonic solution |
what are Ion Channel Proteins? | They move the proteins across the plasma membrane. |
moves sodium out of the cell and potassium into the cell, both against there concentration gradients. | Sodium-Potassium Pump |
Moves large molecules outside of the cell. | Exocytosis |
Process in which take in large molecules by vesicle formation | Endocytosis |
moves large substances, even another cell, into the cell. | phagocytosis |
involves the movement of liquid or other particles into the cell. | pinocytosis |
What are some examples of Passive Transport? | Diffusion, Ion Channels, Facilitated Diffusion, Osmosis |
What are some examples of Active Transport? | Sodium-Potassium Pump |
