Bulk movement. In cell biology, bulk flow is the process by which proteins with a sorting signal [definition needed] travel to and from different cellular compartments. In other words, bulk transport is a type of transport which involves the transport of large amount of substance like lipid droplets and solid food particles across plasma ...
A seed bank (also seed banks or seeds bank) stores seeds to preserve genetic diversity; hence it is a type of gene bank. [1] There are many reasons to store seeds. One is to preserve the genes that plant breeders need to increase yield, disease resistance, drought tolerance, nutritional quality, taste, etc. of crops.
Bulk purchasing or mass buying is the purchase of much larger quantities than the usual, for a unit price that is lower than the usual. Wholesaling is selling goods in large quantities at a low unit price to retail merchants. The wholesaler will accept a slightly lower sales price for each unit, if the retailer will agree to purchase a much ...

Diffusion vs. bulk flow "Bulk flow" is the movement/flow of an entire body due to a pressure gradient (for example, water coming out of a tap). "Diffusion" is the gradual movement/dispersion of concentration within a body with no net movement of matter. An example of a process where both bulk motion and diffusion occur is human breathing.
When you think of buying in bulk, Costco, BJ's and Sam's Club probably come to mind. But savvy shoppers know that pallets full of outsized merchandise are waiting for shipment in Amazon warehouses,...
Bulk shopping can be a great way to save money, but sometimes the drive to the warehouse club is too far away to be convenient. Here's how can you save time, gas and money when shopping for ...
Exocytosis ( / ˌɛksoʊsaɪˈtoʊsɪs / [1] [2]) is a form of active transport and bulk transport in which a cell transports molecules (e.g., neurotransmitters and proteins) out of the cell ( exo- + cytosis ). As an active transport mechanism, exocytosis requires the use of energy to transport material. Exocytosis and its counterpart ...
