The Tonic Chronicles
A solution in which the concentration of solutes is lower relative to another solution.
What is hypotonic solution?
This chemical process occurs in the mitochondria.
What is cellular respiration?
This organelle contains its own DNA.
What is the mitochondria?
the movement of particles from areas of greater concentration to areas of lesser concentration
What is diffusion?
These plastid contain green pigment and chlorophyll, and are used in photosynthesis.
What are chloroplasts?
The rupturing of a cell due to excess internal pressure.
What is cytolysis?
These digestive organelles also serve to break up dead cell material.
What are lysosomes?
Movement of molecules through the plasma membrane aided by a process that requires energy.
active transport
Plastids containing yellow, orange, or red pigments used in photosynthesis
Chromoplasts
Endocytic process in which a cell engulfs large particles or whole cells.
What is phagocytosis?
These membrane bounded sacs transport large molecules through membranes.
What are endocytic vesicles?
1. The release of substances from a cell by the fusion of a vesicle with the membrane (active transport).
2. A process that requires the cell to expend energy to move particles into the cell by vesicles forming from the cell membrane (active transport).
