TRANSPORT ACROSS MEMBRANES - DIFFUSION, FACILITATED DIFFUSION AND OSMOSIS

Across
Type of protein embedded in the cell membrane that allows the facilitated diffusion of large molecules. The molecule attaches to this protein which then changes shape.
A component of phospholipids which face outwards and are water loving.
A membrane that allows some substances across but not larger molecules (two words).
A molecule which is the main component of cell membranes.
A type of diffusion where particles pass through the cell membrane through carrier or channel proteins.
A molecule on the surface of the cell membrane that has a lipid attached.
A type of diffusion where water molecules pass through the membrane form a high water potential to a low water potential.
Down
A component of phospholipids which face inwards and are water repelling.
A molecule found throughout the cell membrane which gives the membrane stability and fluidity.
A molecule on the surface of the cell membrane which has a carbohydrate attached.
A type of protein embedded in the cell membrane which forms a pores, allowing facilitated diffusion of charged particles.
