Transport of Molecules across Cell Membrane
The following points highlight the five processes involved in transport of molecules across cell membrane. The processes are: 1. Passive Diffusion 2. Facilitated Diffusion 3. Active Transport 4. Group Translocation 5. Ion Transport through Ionophores. Process # 1. Passive Diffusion: By passive diffusion, molecules move across the membrane without interacting with any specific carrier protein in the cell membrane. The [...]
