Answer 1

@thomaster

Answer 2

Do you know what's diffusion, osmosis, passive and active transport, exocytosis and endocytosis?

Answer 3

I think so,yes.

Answer 4

Let me go get my notebook.

Answer 5

So first image, what do you see?

Answer 6

Hmmmmmmm.... Active transport,I think.

Answer 7

yep, carrier proteins moving particles across a membrane is called active transport

Answer 8

Okie. I shall write "active transport" on the line,then.

Answer 9

And... Exocytosis ?

Answer 10

Also, Osmosis.

Answer 11

Active transport, exocytosis, and osmosis.

Answer 12

exocytosis is a process by which a cell directs the contents of secretory vesicles out of the cell membrane and into the extracellular space

Answer 13

I see.

Answer 14

Endocytosis, then.

Answer 15

Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides

Answer 16

Endocytosis is process by which cells absorb molecules by engulfing them

Answer 17

Okay.

Answer 18

It's endo, according to my notebook....

Answer 19

which picture are you talking about? 22?

Answer 20

Yep.

Answer 21

Do you know the definition of diffusion?

Answer 22

Yeah.

Answer 23

movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration

Answer 24

Wow. I am so slow.

Answer 25

I read the picture incorrectly.

Answer 26

diffusion is the spreading of particles over the area so that the concentration is the same everywhere. exactly what you see in 22

Answer 27

Lowee to higher.

Answer 28

Lower*

Answer 29

So, diffusion,yeah.

Answer 30

uhu

Answer 31

Sorry I took so long to realize that.

Answer 32

Let me write it down.

Answer 33

Done.

Answer 34

So what do you think about 23?

Answer 35

Exocytosis, active transport, osmosis.

Answer 36

no, no, no

Answer 37

Okay,okay,okay.

Answer 38

what is happening in picture 23?

Answer 39

Aren't the particles exiting the cell?

Answer 40

no they're going in the cell

Answer 41

o_o Okay.

Answer 42

And... they're spreading out...

Answer 43

no they're caught in a vesicle :)

Answer 44

Well,that's what it looks like to me. I am so bad at this ._.

Answer 45

oke the meaning of cytosis = particles moving in and out cells
endo = in
exo = out

endocytosis = particles moving in the cell
exocytosis = particles moving out of the cell

I already gave a definition of both, just scroll up.

Answer 46

Okay,thank you.

Answer 47

I know what they mean from the endo and exo parts.

Answer 48

And you say it's passive?

Answer 49

i didn't mention passive? :P

Answer 50

Well, I said it was active,and you said that was wrong.

Answer 51

PS. Thanks for removing that watermark the other day.

Answer 52

yea it's not any kind of transport, and no problem :P

Answer 53

Really? It's neither?! o_o WOAH.

Answer 54

since it's a cell, you're talking about cytosis

Answer 55

So you want me to write "cytosis"?

Answer 56

when you talk about a membrane, then it would be transport

Answer 57

yes but is it endocytosis or exocytosis?

Answer 58

Hmmm. You said it's trapped...and that it was not exo....so...endo?

Answer 59

exo = moving out of the cell
endo = moving in the cell

Answer 60

Yes,right.

Answer 61

And it is not exocytosis.

Answer 62

so

Answer 63

Endocytosis?! I'm guessing here. Just kidding. LOL.

Answer 64

LOL. Helping me out must be frustrating. Sorry.

Answer 65

nah I'm helping students with these things more times a week so I'm used to it

Answer 66

You said "medical biology"? So you want to study medicine?

Answer 67

nah it's a laboratory education. So I can work in hospital labs later :)

Answer 68

Kewl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RU GONNA SAVE LIVES?!

Answer 69

haha I will surely aid in the saving of lifes :P
But let's get back to the question shall we?

Answer 70

Yes,yes,right. Sorry.

Answer 71

The last question I must answer is: Is it osmosis or diffusion?

Answer 72

what number

Answer 73

Number 22.

Answer 74

particles spreading out over the area to equalize the concentration everywhere, diffusion.
osmosis is what you see in 27

Answer 75

O ya, there are 12 particles in each box.

Answer 76

Thank you,sir.

Answer 77

Now,onto number 23...

Answer 78

Endocytosis?

Answer 79

yes

Answer 80

OMG I ACTUALLY GOT SOMETHING RIGHT.

Answer 81

haha I already explained 23 to you don't you remember? xD It was 5 minutes ago

Answer 82

Wait,really?

Answer 83

I don't recall...

Answer 84

Orite. LOL.

Answer 85

so what do you see in 24?

Answer 86

Hmm.

Answer 87

Exocytosis.

Answer 88

what is the definition of exocytosis? I said it in this post :P

Answer 89

"exocytosis is a process by which a cell directs the contents of secretory vesicles out of the cell membrane and into the extracellular space"

Answer 90

yes, in which image do you see that happening?

Answer 91

In number 26.

Answer 92

exactly :)

Answer 93

Okie,let me write "endo" on 26.

Answer 94

you mean exocytosis right?

Answer 95

Yeah,typo. Sorry.

Answer 96

Oh,I see what you mean!
