Osmosis is a form of what type of transport

Passive transport/Simple diffusion

100

THIS ORGANELLE: Supports, protects, controls movement of materials in/out of cell, maintains homeostasis

Cell Membrane

100

Active transport requires _____.

ATP (cellular energy)

100

This protein simply allows for the passive (energy-less) movement of materials.

Channel proteins

100

Controls cell activities; contains the hereditary material of the cell

Nucleus

200

Substance in which a solute is dissolved

Solvent

200

The cell membrane is made of a bilayer of this macromolecule:

Phospholipids

200

What type of endocytosis involves liquids and nutrients?

Pinocytosis

200

These proteins are able to identify substances and invaders.

Cell recognition proteins

200

Carries materials through the cell and aids in making proteins

Endoplasmic Reticulum

300

Cell is placed in a hypertonic solution. Water will travel ________ and make the cell _________

Outside; Shrink/shrivel

300

The portion of the cell membrane that does not like water (...maybe even fears it!)

Hydrophobic fatty acid tails of phospholipids

300

What type of endocytosis involves large molecules like food, debris, and invaders?

Phagocytosis

300

This type of protein acts to catalyze reactions.

Enzymatic

300

Organelle that makes ribosomes:

Nucleolus

400

Concentration is lower outside of the cell than on the inside

Hypotonic solution

400

The portion of the cell membrane that is oriented towards water (...maybe even loves it!)

Hydrophilic phosphate heads of phospholipids

400

Active transport moves molecules ________ the concentration gradient.

Up OR against 

400

These proteins physically transport a great variety of substances either passively or actively.

Carrier proteins

400

This organelle sorts and packages proteins and ships them off to their final destinations.

Golgi apparatus

500

If a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, in which direction will water flow?

Into the cell (remember: water always flows from HYPO --> HYPER)

500

The cell membrane of the red blood cell will allow water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide to pass through. Because other substances are blocked from entering, this membrane is called __________.

Semi-permeable/selectively permeable

500

What type of endocytosis involves specific molecules sensed by proteins that trigger uptake? 

Receptor-mediated endocytosis

500

These proteins are shaped specifically for particular molecules to bind to them.

Receptor proteins

500

This organelle synthesizes proteins:

Ribosomes
