Cards (5)

  • Which part of the cell controls substances moving in and out of it?

    Cell membrane
  • Define diffusion
    movement of substances from a high concentration to a low concentration
  • Factors affecting diffusion:
    •concentrations
    temperature
    •SA of cell membrane
  • Define osmosis
    The diffusion of water from a dilute solution to a concentrated solution through a permeable membrane
  • Define active transport
    Moves substances from a more dilute solution to a more concentrated solution. This requires energy from respiration
