pores of the bag. Sucrose was not able to pass through as the molecules were too big to enter. This is similar to a cell because the size of a molecule can determine whether or not the substance can enter the cell through diffusion. Larger molecules will require facilitated diffusion‚ using a transport protein‚ or active transport‚ using a transport protein and also ATP (HyperPhysics.edu). Since water can pass through the dialysis

membrane? Is this second way sufficient? Explain your answer. Since aquaporins are water channels which contain transport proteins that allow facilitated diffusion of water across the cell membrane‚ H20 is concerned it won’t be able to get across if those transport proteins are on strike. H2O crosses the plasma membrane via osmosis – also known as the diffusion of water across a cell membrane‚ and aquaporins are the “main route” for water entering and exiting the cell. Osmosis moves water in the direction

CELLS All living things are made of cells‚ and cells are the smallest units that can be alive. Life on Earth is classified into five kingdoms‚ and they each have their own characteristic kind of cell. However the biggest division is between the cells of the prokaryote kingdom (the bacteria) and those of the other four kingdoms (animals‚ plants‚ fungi and protoctista)‚ which are all eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells are smaller and simpler than eukaryotic cells‚ and do not have a nucleus. Prokaryote

The way that the molecules move across the cell membrane is that the carbon dioxide molecules spread out rapidly out your red blood cells down their concentration gradient to your lungs. When water molecules move freely through your cell membrane is called osmosis as we learned last unit. The reason why molecules move across the cell membrane is because they are small molecules that have no charge like oxygen which the cell membrane need to survive. So basically the molecules that move across the
