2.D) Movement of substances into and out of cells
  1. 3. Active Transport
    1. goes against concentration gradient
      1. protien carriers in cell membrane
    2. Higher/lower concentration gradient
      1. 1. Diffusion
        1. cell membrane permeable to a substance
          1. example oxygen and carbon dioxide
            1. experiment: ink moving throughout water
        2. 2. Osmosis
          1. diffusion with water molecules
            1. diluted molecules have more kinetic energy to move
              1. experiment: pure water against salty water carrots
        3. turgid cells
          1. cells full of water
            1. supports plants
          2. Factors affecting movment
            1. 1. surface area : volume
              1. flatter means more transport
              2. 2. temperature
                1. changes rate of movement
                2. 3. concentration gradient
                  1. higer to lower
