16
Q

Active transport

A

Materials moved with cell energy, materials off and move from low to high concentration

17
Q

Membrane associated pumps

A

Proteins in the membrane push materials through the membrane

18
Q

Endocytosis

A

Bringing large amounts of material into a cell by wrapping the membrane around them

19
Q

Phagocytosis

A

Membrane extends out word to grab large solid particles

20
Q

Pseudopods

A

Extensions of the cell used for phagocytosis

21
Q

Pinocytosis

A

Membrane folds in word to collect liquids or lots of dissolved materials

22
Q

Exocytosis

A

Large amounts of materials removed from the cell when contractile vacuole attaches to membrane
