Passive vs. Active Transport. Passive Transport. Does NOT require energy Moves substances from higher to lower concentration. Types of Passive Transport. Diffusion - movement of any type of particle from high concentration to low concentration. Types of Passive Transport.
E N D
Passive Transport • Does NOT require energy • Moves substances from higher to lower concentration
Types of Passive Transport • Diffusion - movement of any type of particle from high concentration to low concentration
Types of Passive Transport • Osmosis - movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from higher to lower concentration
Types of Passive Transport • Facilitated Diffusion - movement of molecules across a cell membrane with the help of transport proteins (faster than regular diffusion)
Active Transport • Energy IS required • Moves substances from lower concentration to higher concentration
Types of Active Transport • Active transport (general) - substances move from lower to higher concentration {against the concentration gradient}
Types of Active Transport • Endocytosis - large molecules are taken into a cell -Phagocytosis = solids taken in “eat” -Pinocytosis = liquids taken in “drink”
Types of Active Transport • Exocytosis - large molecules exit the cell
