1
New cards

means there is a GREATER concentration of solute molecules OUTSIDE the cell than inside

HYPERTONIC

2
New cards

means there is a LOWER concentration of solute molecules OUTSIDE the cell than inside.

HYPOTONIC

3
New cards

means there is the SAME concentration of solute molecules outside the cell as inside. 

ISOTONIC

4
New cards

The pressure inside a plant cell caused by water pushing against the cell wall is called ___ pressure

TURGOR

5
New cards

The SWELLING and BURSTING of animal cells when water enters is called ___

CYTOLYSIS

6
New cards

The SWELLING and BURSTING of animal cells when water enters happens when the cell is placed in a ___ solution

HYPOTONIC

7
New cards

Placing plants in HYPOTONIC solution causes the osmotic pressure to ___

increase

8

PLASMOLYSIS

9
New cards

It happens when a plant cell is placed into ___ solutions

HYPERTONIC

10
New cards

When water leaves a plant cell, teh osmotic pressure will ___

decrease

11
New cards

The shrinking of ANIMAL cells that are placed in a HYPERTONIC solution is called ___

PLASMOLYSIS

12
New cards

Cells stay the same size when placed in an ___ solution because the amount of water leaving the cell is the same and theamount of water entering

ISOTONIC

13
New cards

The substance that dissolves to make the solution is called ___

solute 

14
New cards

During diffusion molecules tend to move

down the concentration gradient

15
New cards

When the concentration of a solute is the same throughout a system, the system has reached

equilibrium

16
New cards

The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrance is called

osmosis

facilitated diffusion

19
New cards

Energy for active transport comes from a cell’s ___

mitochondria

20
New cards

___  transport requires energy from ATP to move substances across membranes

ACTIVE

21
New cards

A cell must expend energy to transport substances using ___

endocytosis

22
New cards

White blood cells engulf, digest, adn destroy invading bacteria using ___

phagocytosis

23
New cards

All of the following are kinds of passive transport 

Diffusion

Facilitated Diffusion

osmosis

New cards

Give an example of active transport

phagocytosis

25
New cards

Endocytosis that brings in small dissolved molecules(solutes) and fluids is called___ 

pinocytosis

26
New cards

Golgi bodies use ___ to transport molecules out of cells

exocytosis

27
New cards

The pressure exerted by water moving during osmosis is called ___ pressure

osmotic

28
New cards

Placing an animal cell in a hypotonic solution will cause water to 

move into the cell

29
New cards

When molecules move DOWN the concentration gradient it means they are moving from ___

an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration

30
New cards

Active transport requres ___ to move molecules across membranes

ENERGY

31
New cards

ATP

is the molecule that provides the energy for active transport

32
New cards

Golgi Bodies use ___ to release molecules outside the cell

EXOCYTOSIS

33

___ moves oxygen and carbon dioxide molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration across membranes

DIFFUSION

34
New cards

The cell organelles that burns glucose and provides ATP for active transport are the___

MITOCHONDRIA

35
New cards

Water moves across cell membranes___

OSMOSIS

36
New cards

A small membrane sac used to transport substances during exocytosis and endocytosis

VESICLE

37
New cards

Kind of endocytosis that makes in small disolved molecules (solutes) or fluids

PINOCYTOSIS

38
New cards

___transport does not require energy

PASSIVE

39
New cards

Druing ___ diffusion carrier protiens grab glucose molecules, change chape, and flip to the otherside of the membrane, like arevolving door.

FACILITATED

40
New cards

A ___ protein is an integral membrane protien that helps move moleucles across a cell_membrane

ISOTONIC

41
New cards

A solution in which there is a HIGHER concentration of molecules outside the cell than inside 

HYPERTONIC

42
New cards

A CONCENTRATION ___ forms whenever there is a difference in concentration between one place and another.
