The elements that make up lipids

What is Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus? 

100

This is the movement of water 

What is osmosis? 

100

This describes the flexibility of the membrane and the arrangement of its molecules

What is fluid mosaic model?


100

Another name for the cell membrane 

What is plasma membrane or phospholipid bilayer?

100

Examples of lipids

oil, butter, fat, meats have them, cheeses, nuts have them

200

These are the THREE general functions of lipids

What is long term energy storage, waterproof coverings, part of the cell membrane

200

The word for the membrane describing the movement of solutes into the cell when only some can pass through

What is semipermeable/ selectively permeable? 

200

This type of transport requires energy to transport contents

What is active transport? 

200

The desired result of movement of molecules across the membrane

What is dynamic equilibrium? 

200

Name the water loving and the water hating portion of the cell membrane and draw it

What is hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail

300

This is a monomer (labeled) and a polymer (labeled) of lipids

Monomer - glycerol or fatty acids

Polymer - triglyceride; phospholipid; cholesterol

300

These components of the cell membrane help with the movement of certain solutes across the membrane

What are transport and carrier proteins? (Transport uses ATP; carrier are for passive)

300

This portion of the bilayer is hydrophobic

What is the middle (tails of the phospholipids)?

300

What macromolecule makes up the cell membrane?

What is a lipid?

300

What is the purpose of carrier/ transport proteins?

They help molecules go through the cell membrane and into/out of the cell.

400

This lipid makes up most of the cell membrane's structure

What is the phospholipid?

400

This is found within the inner membrane of the cell and can be used to add stability and flexibility to the membrane.

What is Cholesterol? 

400

This is the difference between hypotonic and isotonic solutions. (Diagram is ok in lieu of or in addition to words)

Isotonic - the concentration of solutes is equal inside and outside the cell

Hypotonic - the concentration of solutes is higher inside the cell than outside so water rushes in

400

The name of the energy used in active transport - full words!

Adenosine triphosphate

400

These are three functions of the cell membrane

protection/boundary; regulate what goes in and out of the cell; compartmentalize organelles/objects (can help form vesicles and channels within the cell)

500

This rhymes with phospholipid (30 seconds)

imaginary or not - good luck!

anything that rhymes gets the points - lipid does not count as it's in the original word

500

You place a pure water cell into salt water. What type of solution is the salt water?.

hypertonic

500

These are the parts of phospholipids

What are phosphate group, a glycerol, a fatty acid?

500

These are three types of passive transport

What is facilitated diffusion, diffusion, osmosis?

500

This is what the cell membrane has to do with metabolism

Transport allows the cell to obtain metabolites, get rid of wastes, communicate with other cells
