Active transport require the cell to expand energy whilst Passive transport require no energy from the cell in active transport.
Passive Transport moves molecules across membrane without the use of energy by the cell.
-Simple diffusion
-Facilitated diffusion
-Osmosis
Active Transport uses energy (ATP) to move molecules across membrane.
-Protein pumps
-Exocytosis
-Endocytosis (Phagocytosis & Pinocytosis)
The hormone ethylene is a gas and disperses easily.
The human circulatory system processes an average of 20 litres of blood per day through capillary filtration, which removes plasma while leaving the blood cells. Roughly 17 litres of the filtered plasma is reabsorbed directly into the blood vessels, while the remaining three litres remain in the interstitial fluid. One of the main functions of the lymph system is to provide an accessory return route to the blood for the surplus three litres
