| Differentiate between co-transport and counter-transport. | Co-transport is when 2 molecules move together through the cell membrane whereas counter-transport is when 2 molecules move in opposite directions through the cell membrane. |
| Differentiate between diffusion and osmosis. | Diffusion is when molecules move down the concentration gradient. Osmosis is a passive transport of water molecules. |
| Differentiate between endocytosis and exocytosis | Endocytosis brings in molecules whereas exocytosis excretes materials out of the cell. |
