Question

Transcribed Image Text:**3. Type of Transport:**
**Reasoning:**
---
**Describe the cell membrane as a gracious barrier! What does that mean?**
---
**List some other gracious barriers in life - physical ones! What is their purpose?**
---
**List still some other gracious barriers in life - non-physical ones - spiritual ones. What is their purpose? Use scripture here (we will talk about some in class!)**
---
**Graph/Diagram Explanation:**
The image contains two diagrams illustrating the concept of concentration across a membrane:
1. **Top Diagram:**
- It shows a gradient with a high concentration on the left side and low concentration on the right side.
- Arrows indicate the movement of particles from high to low concentration, demonstrating diffusion across a membrane.
2. **Bottom Diagram:**
- It depicts a scenario where concentration is balanced on both sides, referred to as equilibrium.
- The particles are evenly distributed, with no net movement across the membrane.
These diagrams help visualize the principles of diffusion and equilibrium in transporting substances across cell membranes.
