Cell Transport - Coggle Diagram
Cell Transport
Passive Transport (Does not use energy)
Simple diffusion
Small and non-polar molecules, go through the phospholipid bilayer
Things move from HIGH concentration, to LOW concentration (They move with the concentration Gradient)
Facilitated diffusion
These molecules pass using channel proteins
Large, polar molecules
Osmosis
Movement of water through a membrane
AQUAPORIN (channel protein only for water)
It is a case of diffusion, water moves from from HIGH concentration of water to LOW through a permeable membrane
Solution
The combination between a solvent and a solute
Solvent = water
Solute = Sugar, salt, food dye, lemon, coffee, tea
Based on the proportions of solutes and solvents in a solution it can be categorized
Hypertonic, +Solutes / -Solvent
Hypotonic, -Solutes / +Solvents
Isotonic, Solute = Solvent
Active Transport (Uses/requires energy) (ATP)
Things move from LOW concentration to HIGH concentration AGAINST the concentration GRADIENT
ATP is a molecule that has 3 phosphates in the back and when you break the phosphates bond it realizes energy for your body
Using channel proteins
Large, polar molecule
Using transport poteins
Using the whole membrane
Way too large molecules
