How is the filtration that occurs in the glomerulus different from passive transport, active transport, or any form of membrane transport?    1. Filtration occurs between cells, not through them    2. Filtration only involves small substances, whereas membrane transport often deals with large substances    3.

Tissue regeneration & repair

Tissue regeneration involves the restoration of tissue components by regrowth of damaged tissues. In contrast, tissue repair involves patching of injured tissue rather than restoring it. It is the proliferative capacity of the cells that decides the amount of regeneration against the repair that would occur in the tissue. Both regeneration and repair depending on the duration of the injury and response to the inflammation.
