Transport proteins p. 145

What is the role of transport proteins?

Explain selective permeability

 

Passive Transport is diffusion across a membrane p. 145

Diffusion

Concentration Gradient

Does the concentration of one substance impact the movement of other substances down a concentration gradient?
