transport
Diffusion
The movement of molecules and ions from a high concentration region to a
lower concentration region down a concentration gradient as a result of their
random movement.
It is a passive process that doesn’t need
energy to happen
It depends on the kinetic energy of particles
Difference in
Random concentration
movement of of a certain
molecules that substance
provide energy

Because, increasing the kinetic energy of the molecules and their collision with cell
membrane
Distance of The smaller the distance molecules have to travel, the faster
tr diffusion transport will occurs and this means faster diffusion
Example: Blood capillaries and alveoli have walls which are only one cell thick.
Concentration
Increasing the difference of concentration leads to increase in
gradient
rate of diffusion

Rate of
• It is active as it needs energy to take place active
• Need much mitochondria (why????) uptake
Example: Conc. Of O
2 or
glucose
A-In plant: * Absorption of minerals from soil by root hair cell
B-Animal: * Absorption of glucose from the small intestine to blood stream

CHAPTER THREE MOVMENT OF MOLECULES
Important questions:
Q1) Why respiration rate increases during uptake of minerals?
-Because active uptake needs energy that is released by respiration
Q2) Explain how root hair cell of pea plant absorb ions from soil with low nitrate
concentration?
-By active transport where molecules of ion is taken in the binding site of the
carrier then The carrier molecules rotate using energy to transfer the solute from
lower concentration area to its higher concentration area

Osmosis
Net movement of water from area of high concentration of water (dilute solution) to
area of low concentration of water (concentrated solution) through partially
permeable membrane
Water potential: The ability of water molecules to move from one place to another

CHAPTER THREE MOVMENT OF MOLECULES
We used a visking tubing that is partially permeable and allow for specific
molecules to cross through it.

*Plant cell doesn’t burst as it has a cell wall that is elastic as it’s made of cellulose
so it’s stretched and never break
