Simple diffusion
Molecules move directly over the phospholipid bilayer
Facilitated diffusion
Molecules move across the membrane with the help of protiens/canals
Move from high to low
No energy required
Specific
Osmosis
Diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane to diluate higher solute concentrations.
Hypertonic
Hypertonic
Isotonic
Active transport
Endocytosis
Exocytosis
Structure of cell membrane
Importance of surface area: volume ratio
Comparing and contrasting different types of transport in term of what type of particles they move, whether they go down or against the concentration gradient, whether they require transport proteins, whether they require energy
Predict which way solutes will diffuse across a membrane
Predict which way water will diffuse across a membrane via osmosis
