  • The cell membrane is a selectively permeable barrier that separates the cell from its environment.
  • active transport moves against the concentration gradient (low to high)
  • osmosis is passive transport
  • diffusion is passive transport
  • active transport moves particles against the concentration gradient like minerals to roots.
  • diffusion moves substances or particles from high to low concentration gradient.
  • diffusion requires no energy.
  • osmosis requires no energy
  • active transport requires energy respiration.
  • cell membrane controls what goes in and out of the cell.
  • chloroplast is needed for photosynthesis.
  • the nucleus contains DNA .
  • the cell membrane acts as a support and maintains the shape of the cell.
  • ribosomes provide protein for the cell.
  • cytoplasm is where chemical reactions take place
  • mitochondria is needed for energy and respiration the the cell.
  • the cell wall acts as a physical defence and structure support to cell.
  • eukaryotic is dna in nucleus
  • plant and animal cells are eukaryotic
  • prokaryotic is dna not found in nucleus
  • bacteria has a plasmid ring of dna
