2.D) Movement of substances into and out of cells

  1. 3. Active Transport

    • goes against concentration gradient
      • protien carriers in cell membrane
  2. Higher/lower concentration gradient

    • 1. Diffusion
      • cell membrane permeable to a substance
        • example oxygen and carbon dioxide
          • experiment: ink moving throughout water
    • 2. Osmosis
      • diffusion with water molecules
        • diluted molecules have more kinetic energy to move
          • experiment: pure water against salty water carrots
  3. turgid cells

    • cells full of water
      • supports plants
  4. Factors affecting movment

    • 1. surface area : volume
      • flatter means more transport
    • 2. temperature
      • changes rate of movement
    • 3. concentration gradient
      • higer to lower
