A transport protein moves potassium molecules from low concentration to high concentration. Which type of transport is being used?
Active Transport
The reason cells move substances in and out
To maintain homeostasis, release waste, and/or transmit molecules to other parts of the body
What does the term "selectively permeable" mean?
only letting some things through
In passive transport, molecules move from a _______ to ______ concentration
What is high to low?
What is the difference between active and passive transport?
Active requires energy (ATP) and goes against the concentration gradient
What type of cell transport would facilitated diffusion be?
Passive Transport
The type of solution where the concentration of solute is equal on both sides
What is an isotonic solution?
The type of transport is shown in the diagram
Facilitated Diffusion
When there is a higher SOLUTE concentration inside the cell than outside the cell, what type of solution is it?
hypotonic
The type of transport is shown in the picture

Active Transport
The heads of a phospholipid are ___________, meaning they are attracted to water.
hydrophilic
The organelle responsible for the production of energy (ATP) for your cell
Mitochondria
The main function of the cell membrane
To control what substances enter and exit the cell
__________ is the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane.
What is Osmosis?
Description of substances that CAN move across the cell membrane
small and non-polar
What cellular transport did this cell model demonstrate?

Osmosis (movement of water in/out of cell)?
Your teacher sprays an air freshener, and it slowly spread throughout the classroom This was an example of what type of transport?
Diffusion, passive transport
This type of solution has a greater concentration of solvent than solute; as a result if a cell is placed in it, the cells will usually swell
What is hypotonic solution?
During transport water will move in what direction?

What is INTO the cell?
What are the three types of passive transport?
Diffusion
Facilitated diffusion
Osmosis
The structure that makes facilitated diffusion different from other types of passive transport
channel protein
When a cell is in a state in which concentrations on the inside and outside are even, it has reached _______________
equilibrium
When we breathe in oxygen, it travels the blood stream and diffuses directly into our cells without the use of energy. What type of transport is this?
simple diffusion
A cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, what will happen after 6 hours
The cell will swell as the water moves into the cell.
What macromolecule is responsible for moving molecules into and out of the cell?
Proteins
