Cell membranes are made up of ________ and _________
protein
lipids
Plant cells have a cell wall
made of ______
cellulose
The cellulose in plants is _____ in our diet
fiber
They have cell walls but they do not contain cellulse
bacteria and fungi
Cell membranes and cell walls are ______ allowing
water, carbon dioxide, oxygen and nutrients to pass
through easily
porous
Cell membrane separates the ________ of a cell
from its environment—surrounds the cell
components
“Gatekeeper” of the cell—regulates the flow of
materials into and out of cell—_____________
selectively permeable
Cell membrane helps cells maintain ____________. It is a stable internal balance
homeostasis
A process that does not require energy to move
molecules from a HIGH to LOW concentration
passive transport
3 types of paassive transport
diffusion
facilitated diffusion
osmosis
is the movement of small particles across a
selectively permeable membrane like the cell membrane
until equilibrium is reached.
diffusion
These particles move from an area of high concentration
to an area of low concentration.
partuicles in diffusion
_________ is the diffusion of water through a selectively
permeable membrane like the cell membrane
osmosis
_____ diffuses across a membrane from an area of high
concentration to an area of low concentration.
water
Semi-permeable membrane is permeable to water,
but not to _______
sugar
is the movement of larger
molecules like glucose through the cell membrane –
larger molecules must be “helped”
facilitated diffusion
Proteins in the cell membrane form _______ for large
molecules to pass through
channels
Proteins that form channels (pores) are called ____________
protein channels
contain a high concentration of solute
relative to another solution (e.g. the cell's cytoplasm).
hypertonic solution
When
a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, the water diffuses
out of the cell, causing the cell to ________
shrivel.
contain a low concentration of solute
relative to another solution (e.g. the cell's cytoplasm).
hypotonic solution
When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the water diffuses
into the cell, causing the cell to ____and possibly ______
swell
explode
contain the same concentration of solute
as another solution (e.g. the cell's cytoplasm).
isotonic
When a cell is placed in an isotonic solution, the water diffuses into and
out of the cell at the ________
The fluid that surrounds the body cells is _______
sae rate
isotonic
is the movement of molecules from LOW to HIGH
concentration.
Energy is required as molecules must be pumped against the
concentration gradient.
active transport
Proteins that work as pumps are called __________
protein pumps
is the mechanism by which
very large molecules (such as food and wastes) get into
and out of the cell
endocytosis and exocytosis
Food is moved into the
cell by _____________
endocytosis
Wastes are moved out
of the cell by ______________
exocytosis
