Passive Transport

Transport proteins

________ on cell membranes help molecules cross because they cant cross on their own due to polar /non- polar areas of the membrane.

Cytolysis

________: occurs with the bursting of a cell due to the development of a condition of osmotic imbalance.

Concentration gradient

________: measures the difference in concentrations of a substance between areas.

Plasmolysis

________: shrinking of (the cell membrane) cytoplasm away from the wall of a living cell due to the outward osmotic flow of water.

Concentration gradient

measures the difference in concentrations of a substance between areas

Since the cell membrane is selectively preamble, only some molecules are able to diffuse through it

water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and some small lipids

Cytolysis

occurs with the bursting of a cell due to the development of a condition of osmotic imbalance

Turgor Pressure

Pressure exerted by fluid in a cell that presses the cell membrane against the cell wall

Plasmolysis

shrinking of (the cell membrane) cytoplasm away from the wall of a living cell due to the outward osmotic flow of water

Plant cell

wilting, decrease in Turgor Pressure
