1. Three types of passive transport. Simple diffusion Osmosis Facilitated diffusion 2. TRANSPORT
Active Transport Passive Transport o Simple Diffusion: The movement of molecules from region of high concentration to low concentration. o The movement of molecules from region of high concentration to a region of low concentration with the help of carrier proteins. o Osmosis: The movement of water molecules from dilute solution to a concentrated solution across a Semi permeable membrane.

4. The figure shows a model of the active transport system that depends on several carrier proteins found in the cell membrane.
(i) Explain:whatdoyouunderstandbyactivetransport. Movement of particles across the plasma membrane 1. by carrier proteins, 2. against the concentration gradient and 3. requires energy. (ii) Give an example of active Ion or mineral uptake by plant root hairs. transport in plants.
(iii) State two differences between active transport and diffusion. Any two differences energy, gradient concentration, living membrane. 5. The table below shows the effect of hypotonic, isotonic and hypertonic solution on spinach strips, red blood cells and plant cells.
