Passive Transport
Passive transport refers to the movement of substances across cell membranes without the use of energy. This study note explores key concepts such as diffusion, osmosis, the role of the cell membrane, concentration gradients, and how passive transport contributes to maintaining cellular homeostasis. Understanding these mechanisms is vital in comprehending the fundamental processes of substance…

Osmosis
Osmosis is a process that occurs naturally in all living things, including plants and animals. It is a type of passive transport that involves the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This movement of water molecules helps maintain the balance…
