Document Summary

Simple difusion is simplest form of passive transport: requires no metabolic energy, substance moves down concentraion or electrochemical gradient. But how eicient is it: not very over long distances, 10 in 0. 1sec; 100 in 1 sec; 1mm in 100sec. Acive transport requires metabolic energy (atp: based on h+ pumps, h+ gradient maintained through atp use, h+ difusion into cell powers uptake of solutes. Symport: material transported in same direcion as movement of h+ and solute, organic uptake. Aniport: material transported in opposite direcion to movement of h+ and solute, na+ export. Difusion: the spontaneous movement of molecules or paricles along a concentraion gradient. Osmosis: special case of difusion: water molecules difuse across a selecively permeable membrane from an area of higher water concentraion (low solute concentraion), to a lower water concentraion (high solute concentraion) Hypertonic: higher concentraion of solutes outside of cell. Isotonic: equal concentraion of solutes inside and outside of cell. Hypotonic: lower concentraion of solutes outside the cell.
