Types of Transport
This term is the general type of transport for movement of substances across cell membranes without the use of energy
What is Passive Transport ?
What are tumors?
This is when the cell grows, replicates, and prepares for division
What is interphase?
What is a solution where more water is on the outside of the cell?
Hypotonic
This type of transport would move O2 and CO2
What is simple diffusion?
This general transport requires energy to move substances against the concentration gradient, from lower to higher concentration
These tumors are non-cancerous and usually do not spread
What are benign tumors?
This is when chromosomes align in the center of the cell
What is metaphase?
What is a solution where there is an equal concentration of solute and water inside and outside the cell?
What is isotonic?
What is apoptosis?
This is the movement of water across a membrane
What is osmosis?
These tumors are cancerous and invade nearby tissue and can spread to other parts of the body
This is when sister chromatids are pulled apart
What is anaphase?
What is a solution that causes the cell to shrivel?
What is hypertonic?
This organelle is critical for cell division
What are centrioles?
This passive diffusion uses protein channels
What is facilitated diffusion?
An example of this type of substance is tobacco smoke
What are carcinogens?
This is when the cytoplasm divides, forming two new daughter cells
What attaches to sister chromosomes to pull them apart during division?
What are microtubules?
This active transport brings something into the cell, bacteria, for example
This is programmed cell death
What is apoptosis?
In what phase does the nuclear envelope begin to break down?
Prophase
What are cells that can differentiate into different types of cells?
What are stem cells?
