    Active transport: requires that a cell expend energy to move molecules across a membrane against the solute’s concentration gradient (the side where it is more concentrated) Feedback inhibition: Metabolic reaction is blocked by its products. A product acts as an inhibitor of one of the enzymes in the pathway to regulate metabolism. Centriole: a structure in an animal cell composed of microtubule triplets arranged in a 9+0 pattern. An animal usually has a pair of centrioles within each of its centrosomes

    Active and passive transport are the ways in which cells allow things to move into and out of the cell through the cell membrane. They include many different ways to transport things. Passive transport requires no expenditure of energy by the cell. However‚ Active transport requires ATPs which have energy in order for it to move something through the cell membrane. There are different types of transport to suit the sizes of molecules as well. Passive transport includes diffusion‚ osmosis‚ and

    Active and passive transport are biological processes that move oxygen‚ water and nutrients into cells and remove waste products. Active transport requires chemical energy because it is the movement of biochemicals from areas of lower concentration to areas of higher concentration. On the other hand‚ passive trasport moves biochemicals from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration; so it does not require energy.

    can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The head which is hydrophilic contains a group of phosphate‚ a diglyceride and a simple molecule e.g. choline. The tail is hydrophobic and is made up of fatty acids. Phospholipids receive and transmit signals across the cell membrane and act as a store room for energy. The main role of phospholipids is that they can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The head which is hydrophilic contains a group of phosphate‚ a diglyceride and

    Diffusion‚ Osmosis and Active Transport Substances will move through the membrane by diffusion. This is the random spreading out of particles until they are even. For example‚ when you put your instant coffee in boiling water‚ the coffee particles spread out and fill the entire mug‚ this is diffusion. A second way that substances can move through the cell membrane is by osmosis. This is a special type of diffusion where water moves from a high to a low concentration through a ’partially permeable
