Term
| Passive transport (diffusion) is ... |
|
Definition
| the transport of solutes from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration; it does not require energy... it happens naturally. |
|
|
Term
| This type of transport moves solutes against their concentration gradients expending energy in the process (ATP) |

|
|
Term
| Symplastic route flows... |
|
Definition
... from one cell's cytosol, through the plasmodesmata to another cell's cytosol
|
|
|
Term
| This transport route crosses from one cell cytoplasm, across the cell wall into the other cell cytoplam |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| The Apolastic route voyages via |
|
Definition
| the cells walls into the extracellular spaces and back into the adjacent cell's cell wall |
|
|
Term
| Material in the apoplast is blocked by the ... |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Why is material coming into the vascular system via the apoplast blocked? |
|
Definition
| The material is blocked because it has not yet been filtered since the apoplast only goes through cell wall which does not check incoming material for pathogens and other unwanteds. |
