Biology Quiz: Cell Transport And Energy - Quiz

Cell transport and energy are important topics in the biology subject. Are you good at this subject? Try this biology quiz and test your knowledge on this topic. The transport of materials across the cell membrane is known as cell transport; this can either be done through passive or active transport. One type of transport requires energy, while the other one does not. The quiz below is designed to help test how much you understand cellular transport and energy. Give it a shot.
