Definitions:

Cyanide

A highly toxic chemical compound that can prevent cells from using oxygen, leading to rapid cell death and potentially fatal poisoning.

ATP

Adenosine triphosphate, a molecule that stores and transfers energy within cells, crucial for muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, and chemical synthesis.

Active Transport

A cellular process that uses energy to move molecules across cell membranes against their concentration gradient.

Facilitated Diffusion

A process of passive transport, aided by transport proteins, that allows molecules to cross the cellular membrane along the concentration gradient without energy expenditure.
