endocytosis and exocytosis are types of transport that require what? energy
diffusion occurs to move particles from _______ concentration to _____ concentration high to low
name the parts of the cell membrane and describe them. hydrophillic heads attract water hydrophobic tails repel water embedded proteins to transport materials cholesterol to hold layers together
An autotroph is different than a heterotroph because???? An autotroph is a producer that can make its own food whereas a heterotroph is a consumer that has to take in other food
