Transport from the Cell - Coggle Diagram
Transport from the Cell
-
- Passive transport (NO ATP required and concentration gradient is from HIGH to LOW)
Any micro molecules (liquid, solid, and gas)can diffuse from the cell membrane. It can also occur outside the cell.
-
Membrane proteins are used. Glucose and amino acids pass through the cell membrane by facilitated diffusion.
- Active Transport (ATP is required and concentration gradient is from LOW to HIGH)
- Membrane (protein) pumps: Ions such as Na and K go in and out of the cell by this transport
- Exocytosis : Polymers go out of the cell by exocytosis in which the particles are surrounded by a membrane and moved out of the cell. No Lysosomes are used.
- Endocytosis: Polymers go inside the cell by being surrounded by the cell membrane and LYSOSOMES are used to digest the polymer taken inside.
- Phagocytosis: Solid macro molecules are taken in.
Example: White blood cells in mammals kill the bacteria and viruses by phagocytosis. Meanwhile; basic organisms such as ameoba, paramecium and hydra digest the food by this.
- Pinocytosis: Liquid macro molecules are taken in.
