Plant Basic Types of Transport
short-distance transport
long-distance transport
vascular tissue
this is related to transport processes that inhibit movement of substances
isolation mechanism
Three (3) types of membrane
Allows all solutes to diffuse through and have little biological significance
free permeable membrane
does not allow anything to pass through and occur as isolation barrier
completely impermeable membrane
allow only certain substance to pass through
differentially/ selective permeable membrane
all __ __ cell membranes are differentially permeable
lipid/protein
diffusion
osmosis
allows the water molecule movement to rapidly move
aquaporins
uses membrane bound molecule called MOLECULAR PUMPS that use energy of ATP to force molecule across the membrane
active transport
what is used in active transport
molecular pumps
is a free energy, has capacity to do work
water
capacity to do works for chemicals
chemical potential
When water adheres to substance, water molecules form __ __ to the material and are not as free to diffuse; capacity to work is __
is the water’s chemical potential
water potential
water potential can be increased by;
three components of water potential
ψπ
osmotic potential
ψp
pressure potential
ψm
matric potential
