Study Notes
Cell Transport
- Diffusion: The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration without the use of energy.
- Active Transport: The type of transport that requires the use of energy to move molecules across the cell membrane.
- Osmosis: The movement of water molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
- Passive Transport: The type of transport that does not require the use of energy.
- Facilitated Diffusion: The movement of molecules through a transport protein in the cell membrane, without the use of energy.
