FOREWORD
Learners are expected to learn from this kit and use this
with utmost care while learning from the discussions and tasks
which they can apply in their everyday activities.
2
OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the lesson, the learners shall be able to:
K: explain the transport mechanisms of the cell (diffusion,
osmosis, facilitated transport, active transport, exocytosis,
and endocytosis)
S: trace the movement of molecules in the cell
A: recognize the importance of the transport mechanisms in
the cell
LEARNING COMPETENCIES:
Explain the transport mechanisms of the cell (diffusion, osmosis,
facilitated transport, active transport) (STEM_BIO11/12-Ig-h-13)

II. WHAT I NEED TO KNOW
DISCUSSION:
Transport Mechanisms in Cells
There are two types of transport mechanisms: passive and active transport.
Passive transport does not require to expend energy to occur, while active
transport needs to use energy in the cell.

Endocytosis. It is also known as ingestion of material by a cell. There
are three similar types: phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and receptor-
mediated endocytosis.

TASK 1
9
Osmosis is the process where water moves across the membrane
toward the area with the highest solute concentration.
Hypertonic solutions have more solute in them, which cause water to
move toward that area. Cells placed in hypertonic solutions will lose water
and shrink.
Solutions that have fewer solute molecules than the cell are
called hypotonic. In this case, water from outside the cell will move into
the cell. The cell will gain water, expand, and could even burst. To
summarize, the side with more solute is said to be hypertonic, and the side
with less is said to be hypotonic.
Color the water molecules blue, the solute molecules purple, and
the phospholipids red.

SYNOPSIS
This self-learning kit tackles about the
transport mechanisms in cells in the
learning competency “Explain transport
mechanisms in cells (diffusion, osmosis,
facilitated transport, active transport,
endocytosis, and exocytosis)”.
Learners are expected to learn and
develop their knowledge about cellular
activities and apply it in real-life situations.
Together, we will learn and enjoy our
journey to the transport mechanisms of
cells.
