100

The term for a structure within a cell that performs a specific function

What is an organelle

100

Give two names for the structure that regulates what enters & exits the cell

What is the cell or plasma membrane

100

This type of cell transport does not require energy

What is passive transport

100

Movement of molecules across a cell membrane that requires energy.

What is active transport

100

Osmosis is considered this type of transport.

What is passive transport

200

This organelle is larger in plant cells than in animal cells

What is the vacuole

200

Type of molecule that forms the plasma membrane

What is a lipid

200

The movement of solutes from a high concentration to a low concentration

What is diffusion

200

Molecules that are too large to move in the cell are transported through this process.

What is endocytosis

200

This solution has an equal number of solutes in and outside the cell.

What is isotonic

300

This organelle digests food & breaks down old cell parts

What is the lysosome

300

This macromolecule acts as channels to allow molecules to move in and out of the cell

What are proteins

300

This term means the diffusion of water across a membrane

What is osmosis

300

Vesicles transport wastes out of the cell through this process.

What is exocytosis

300

Solution with high solute concentrations on the outside of the cell, making a cell shrink.

What is hypertonic

400
Two organelles that can be found in a plant cell, but not an animal cell

What are cell walls & chloroplasts

400

Reber used this analogy to help explain a cell membrane

What is a chain link fence

400

The movement of molecules across a membrane with the help of a protein. Does not require energy.

What is facilitated diffusion

400

During active transport molecules move in this direction across the cell membrane.

What is low to high

400

Solution with a low solute concentration on the outside, making the cell swell.

What is hypotonic

500

This organelle is made up of phospholipids

What is the cell membrane

500

The plasma membrane helps to regulate what goes in and out of cells, always looking to achieve this.

What is equilibrium

500

Name one example of a molecule that can easily move through a cell membrane

What is oxygen, carbon dioxide, water

500

The name of the energy cells use during active transport

What is ATP

500

After diffusion or osmosis a cell will be in this state.
