Types of Transport Review The movement of particles Slides: 16 Download presentation Types of Transport Review The movement of particles against the direction of diffusion. ACTIVE TRANSPORT The movement of particles from high to low concentration. DIFFUSION The diffusion of water across a cell membrane. OSMOSIS The movement of a substance from high to low concentration without energy. PASSIVE TRANSPORT Type of membrane that allows ALL substances to pass through it. PERMEABLE Type of membrane that allows only SOME substances to pass through it. SEMI-PERMEABLE (selectively) A type of membrane that allows NO substances to pass through it. IMPERMEABLE How does a water molecule enter and exit a cell? OSMOSIS How does a sugar molecule enter and exit a cell? ACTIVE TRANSPORT Can you identify two differences between active and passive transport? • TYPE OF SUBSTANCES • CONCENTRATION GRADIENT • ENERGY – YES or NO? Can you identify the methods of transport that do NOT require energy by the cell? PASSIVE TRANSPORT • DIFFUSION • OSMOSIS What factors can control the rate of diffusion? • TYPE OF MEMBRANE • CONCENTRATION GRADIENT • SIZE OF SUBSTANCE • TEMPERATURE • ACTIVITY LEVEL In what direction do substances naturally travel? HIGH TO LOW CONCENTRATION What cell structure controls diffusion and osmosis? CELL MEMBRANE Your life depends on. . . Active Transport!
