Osmosis and bulk transport method

• Bulk active transport - Movement of large particles and fluid by endocytosis and exocytosis
• Endocytosis - Movement of substances into the cell
• Exocytosis - Movement of substances out of the cell
• Solute: Substance dissolved in a solution
• Solvent: Substance that the solute is dissolved in, usually a liquid.
• Concentration - Refers to how much of a substance is present in a solvent
• High solute concentration - High amount of solute and low amount of solvent
• Low solute concentration - Low amount of solute in a solvent
• Osmosis - The movement of water molecules from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration
• Isotonic - Two solutions contain the same amount of substances dissolved in them
• Hypertonic - Solution containing a greater amount of dissolved substances(Lower concentration of free water molecules)
• Hypotonic - Solution containing a lesser amount of dissolved substances(Higher level of free water molecules)
