Question
- moves molecules from _areas of low_ concentration to _areas of high_ concentration.
- example: na⁺/k⁺ pump.
- substances actively transported include: _suggar_, _aas_, na⁺, k⁺, ca²⁺, h⁺.
- endocytosis = movement into the cell.
o pinocytosis = \cell _drinking_.\.
o phagocytosis = \cell _eating_.\.
o receptor - mediated endocytosis = highly ____ uptake.
- exocytosis = movement _material out_ the cell.
Brief Explanations
This text describes active transport in cells which moves molecules against the concentration - gradient (from low to high concentration), gives examples of substances actively transported and types of endocytosis (pinocytosis, phagocytosis, receptor - mediated endocytosis) and exocytosis. Receptor - mediated endocytosis is highly specific uptake.
