100

Requires energy. Is this Active, Passive, Neither, or Both? 

Active Transport

100

Which statement concerning osmosis and active transport is correct?

A. Both endocytosis and active transport require cell energy. 

B. Active transport requires cell energy while osmosis does not. 

C. Neither facilitated diffusion nor osmosis requires cell energy.  

B. Active transport requires cell energy while osmosis does not.

100

The substance that is being dissolved by a solvent.


Solute

100

The Gatekeeper; controls what enters and leaves the cell.

Cell Membrane

100

This organelle sorts and packages proteins.

Golgi Apparatus 

200

Endocytosis is an example of _________ transport. 

Active 

200

A solution that causes a cell to shrink because of the high concentration of solute in the solution surrounding the cell.

Hypertonic

200

The movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to low concentration.

Osmosis
200

The semi-fluid stuff that is found within any cell. Contains dissolved salts. 

Cytoplasm

200

The diffusion of water.

Osmosis

300

Utilizes the semi-permeable membrane and transports proteins.  Active, Passive, Neither, or Both?

Both, Active and Passive Transport

300

When the concentration of solute and solvent are equal on both sides of the membrane.

Isotonic

300

A non-energy requiring process that moves materials across a cell membrane with the concentration gradient.

Passive Transport

300

Plant and animal cells differ in a variety of ways. Plants have a special structure that helps them produce their own food. Within this specialized structure, the plant is working hard to convert the energy from the sun into its own sugars. What is the name of this plant structure?

Chloroplasts

300

The substance that dissolves the solute.

Solvent

400

Does not require energy. Active, Passive, Neither, or Both? 

Passive 

400

A solution that causes a cell to swell because of osmosis.

Hypotonic

400

The process when molecules tend to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Diffusion

400

This is a tiny fluid-filled cavity in the cytoplasm. It can be used for storage of biochemicals.

Vacuole

400

All of the following processes require the cell to use ATP energy, EXCEPT?

A. Endocytosis

B. Active Transport

C. Passive Transport 

D. Sodium-Potassium Pump

C. Passive Transport

500

Process requiring energy for the movement of particles across a cell membrane against the concentration gradient.

Active Transport
500

Which one of these scenarios most likely uses facilitated transport to move molecules across the cell membrane?

A. Oxygen moves from high to low concentration across the phospholipid bilayer. 

B. K+ moves from low to high concentration using a membrane protein. 

C. Glucose moves with the concentration gradient from high to low concentration using a membrane protein. 

C. Glucose moves with the concentration gradient from high to low concentration using a membrane protein.

500

Active transport occurs in cells, for example, when the Na-K pump is at work. Any process that involves active transport most often involves the:

A. Movement of molecules without any predictable pattern. 

B. Movement of molecules from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. 

C. Movement of molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. 

B. Movement of molecules from a lower concentration to a higher concentration.

500

Initial sequence of nitrogen bases that determine type of protein comes from this organelle. 

Nucleus

500

Facilitated diffusion and ________________ are alike since neither requires energy.

A. Endocytosis

B. Phagocytosis

C. Active Transport

D. Simple Diffusion
