Diffusion and exocytosis

Obtains organic molecules by consuming other organisms or parts of them Cannot synthesise their own organic molecules

Fluid refers to the ability of lipids and proteins to move sideways in the membrane. Mosaic refers to the pattern formed by the variety of integral/peripheral p

alcohol fermentation

Through the use of channel and carrier proteins many substances can diffuse across the cell membrane in the same fashion as typical simple diffusion

6O2 + C6H12O6 -> 6H2O + 6CO2 (+ 32 ATP)

6CO2 + 6H2O -> (UV + Chlorophyll) -> C6H12O6 + 6O2

Adenosine triphosphate

growth and repair

Functions as the site of aerobic respiration; generating ATP molecules for energy within the cell

Involved in the synthesis of lipids

Involved in the breakdown of material: Non-functioning organelles Cell debris/materials engulfed (via endocytosis)
