Membrane transport
this form of transport secribes transport that does not require energy
passive transport
This molecule is what is used as the currency of energy by cells
ATP
Name one species other than plants that can photosynthesise
Algae/ protists/ some bacteria
This method of membrane transport only refers to movement of water
osmosis
This is the name of the biological structure that catalyses metabolic. reactions
enzymes
This feature of the plasma membrane describes its ability to allow some substances to pass through, but prevents other substances from passing through
Selective permeability
This is the original source of energy on Earth
Sun
Recall the formula representing phtosythesis
