and binds to enzymes of metabolic pathways


Golgi - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- sorts, chemically modifies and packages
proteins



1

,Diffusion - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- Movement of molecules from an area of
higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.


Passive Process - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- substances cross the membrane
without any energy input from the cell


facilitated diffusion - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- requires a carrier protein
(Molecule)


Osmosis - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- Diffusion of water through a selectively
