diffusion | when a substance moves from high to low |
osmosis | the movement of water |
isotonic | a type of solution where the concentration of water is equal |
hypertonic | a type of solution where water leaves the cell |
hypotonic | a type of solution where water enters the cell |
protein pumps | a type of active tramsport where a pump moves ions against the gradient |
active transport | transport requiring energy |
passive transport | transport not requiring energy |
endocytosis | a large molecule pushes against the membrane and enters |
exocytosis | a large molecule exits the cell |
ATP | a molecule that stores a tiny amount of energy |
downstream | WITH the concentrationgradient |
upstream | AGAINST the concentration gradient |
