Summary Introduction

Introduction: The metabolic pathway needs the participation of ions and molecules that move through cells and across the membrane. Diffusion is the natural distribution of atoms or molecules and it is an important way through which substance move through, out, or into the cells. Every cell membrane integrates enzymes. Some enzymes in cell the membrane act on other lipids and proteins (which are a portion of the lipid bilayer).
