Facilitated diffusion is used for a lipid-insoluble molecule and happens by carrier proteins binding temporarily to the molecule and releasing it to the other side. (lipid-insoluble (polar) molecules such as sugars and amino acids) active transport - - correct ans- -When molecules or ions are pumped from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration. This requires extra energy and carrier proteins because the molecules are going against the concentration gradient. endocytosis - - correct ans- -when a biomacromolecule outside the cell gets enclosed in the cell membrane and forms a vesicle inside the cell. phagocytosis - - correct ans- -endocytosis of extremely large things like other cells. Once enclosed, lysosomes fuse with and digest it. pinocytosis - - correct ans- -endocytosis of tiny droplets of fluids. The cell membrane pinches inward. receptor-mediated endocytosis - - correct ans- -information transfer from one cell to another by use of ligands (signaling molecules) that bind to receptor proteins. proteins - - correct ans- -In facilitated diffusion and active transport, carrier proteins are used to move lipid-insoluble molecules to the other side of the membrane. isotonic - - correct ans- -same concentration of solutes inside as outside the cell hypertonic - - correct ans- -higher concentration of solutes inside the cell than outside the cell blood cells will shrivel in the process of equalizing hypotonic - - correct ans- -lower concentration of solutes inside the cell that outside the cell
