2. Active Transport
• Active transport is the movement of molecules against a concentration
gradient. There are different types of active transport that occur inside
the cell such as; exocytosis, pinocytosis, phagocytosis, and facilitated
diffusion. An example of active transport is the Sodium Potassium pump
which pumps potassium into the cell and sodium out of the cell.

7. Catabolism Anabolism Enzymes
The break-down of
cells making complex
food compounds or
molecules from simpler
cytoplasmic
compounds for example
constituents into
making hormones which is
simpler compounds;
complex from amino acids
the opposite of
which it is simpler
anabolism
A Biochemical substance
allowing chemical reactions to
take place. A functional
protein that regulates
numerous metabolic
pathways of the body.
