If you are trying to understand human anatomy and physiology, it all begins with understanding the cells that make up the human body. In chapter 3, we got to understand the anatomy of the different types of cells within the body. Take up the quiz below on that chapter and get to put all your knowledge together.
Passive transport
"helper" molecule
Solute diffuses down its concentration gradient
Pumps solute from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration
Diffusion
Facilitated diffusion
Osmosis
Active transport pump
Is hypotonic
Has too much salt
Is hypertonic
Is isotonic
Diffusion
Na+/K+ ATP pump
Active transport
Osmosis
A type of cell division
The process that refers to the specialization of cells
A type of passive transport
A form of active transport
Nonselective
Selectively permeable
