Emptycell Quarteroval Membrane Red diagram
Recognising Emptycell Quarteroval Membrane Red
Emptycell Quarteroval Membrane Red supports Culturing microorganisms (biology only) by giving students a diagram they can connect to the specification point being tested.
What To Explain
The membrane is selectively permeable, so substances move across it by diffusion, osmosis or active transport depending on the particle and gradient.
