Q

Passive Transport (NO ATP Required) (Goes down with gradient)

A
  1. Simple diffusion
    Small gases: O2, CO2, N2, nonpolar, and uncharged molecules
  2. Osmosis
    Water travels to more solute
    Hypertonic: Sucked
    Isotonic: =
    Hypotonic: Bloated
  3. Facilitated diffusion (uses proteins)
    Carries large molecules (H+ Na+ Ca2+)
    Channel Protein (Tunnel)
    Carrier Protein (grabber)

4
Q

Active Transport (ATP Required) (Goes against the gradient)

A
  1. Pump/Carrier
    Require ATP
    sodium/potassium pumps
  2. Bulk Transport
    Requirement ATP
    Moves large molecule at once

Exocytosis “Out”
Vesicles Fuses with PM and release contents
Fusing is one way to grow PM

Endocytosis “In”
Vesicle form with PM and brings contents

Phagocytosis “Eating”
Pinocytosis “drinking”
Receptor-mediated “specific”
