The flexible outer boundary of a cell that allow materials in and out of the cell.
What is a cell membrane?
The process in which plants make their own food.
What is Photosynthesis?
The movement of material into and out of the cell using ENERGY.
What is active transport?
The organelle packages materials and move them out of the cell that look like stacked pancakes.
What are Golgi bodies?
The formula for Cellular Respiration
What is
Oxygen + Sugar/Glucose --ATP/Energy-->
Carbon Dioxide + Water
The rigid outer boundary of a plant cell, used for structure and protection.
What is the cell wall?
The movement of large items (usually proteins) OUT of the cell through the cell membrane that requires large quantities of energy.
What is exocytosis?
The movement of large items (proteins, bacteria, viruses) INTO the cell through the cell membrane that requires large quantities of energy.
What is endocytosis?
Passive transport uses this to help move materials in and out of a cell membrane
What are carrier or transport proteins?
The molecules move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration until concentrations are equal.
What is passive transport/equilibrium?
A solution with a lower solute concentration. (swells)
What is hypotonic?
The cell part that contains the genetic information about an organism.
What is the nucleus? or What is DNA?
Water, Carbon Dioxide, Sunlight
What are reactants for photosynthesis?
The organelle stores water, waste and nutrients in the cell.
What is a vacuole?
This term describes the ability of the cell membrane that allows some materials to pass in and out of the cell, but not others.
What is semipermeable?
Name the four Macromolecules
What are lipids, proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids?
The movement of molecules through a cell membrane using special proteins called transport (carrier) proteins.
What is facilitated diffusion?
