Term
|
Definition
| process transporting solutes from hypertonic solutions to hypotonic solutions. Doesn't require energy or a membrane protein. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A process of cellular secretion or excretion in which substances contained in vesicles are discharged from the cell by fusion of the vesicular membrane with the outer cell membrane. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| process of transporting solutes from hypertonic to hypotonic solutions by using a protein channel. This does not require energy. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A process of cellular ingestion by which the plasma membrane folds inward to bring substances into the cell. |
