Down
- 1. A type of passive transport when substances move through the lipid layer.
- 2. all living organisms are made of cells, cells are the basic unit of life, all cells come from preexisting cells, DNA contains hereditary information that is passed on through cell division, all cells have the same chemical composition and metabolic activities, and energy flow occurs within cells.
- 3. The first stage of cellular respiration where glucose is broken down into pyruvate, NADH, and ATP
