Cell Transport

Passive

Active

Uses ATP adenosine triphosphate (energy)

Doesn't use energy

Simple diffusion

small and nonpolar molecules

goes WITH the concentration gradient

goes AGAINST the concentration gradient

from high concentration to low concentration

move through the phospholipid bilayer

from low to high

Facilitate Diffussion

large and polar molecules

uses transport integral proteins

uses channel proteins

Osmosis

movement of water molecules through a membrane

aquaporin (channel protein)

cytosine (engulfing membrane)

HUGE molecules

ribosomes: sythtise proteins
