What Structure does it
pass through
Passes directly through the
membrane: passive diffusion
Lower concentration in the cell
than outside, meaning goes
from the outside into less
concentrated space inside the
cell
-
Through the lipid
Bilayer
Carbon Dioxide
-
Passive diffusion
Higher Concentration inside
cell than without, meaning it
goes to a less concentrated
area on outside the cell
-
Through the lipid
Bilayer
Glucose
-
Passive Facilitated diffusion
When glucose binds to
enzymes in the cell, the
concentration outside stays
higher, meaning the glucose
continues to enter
Move in and out to whichever
side has a lower concentration
-
GLUT transporter,
which is a carrier
protein.
Once glucose is
in the cell, it binds
to an enzyme,
which cannot be
transported with
the GLUT, leaving
the glucose stuck
inside
Passive Facilitated Diffusion
Move in and out through
channels to whichever side
has a lower concentration
Will also be carried across the
membrane via a pump (active
transport). The goal of the cell
is to maintain a concentration
gradient (low outside the cell
and high inside)
