Endomembrane System
The smooth ER primarily synthesizes this type of macromolecule.
What is a lipid?
Active transport requires this molecule for energy.
What is ATP?
Osmosis is the diffusion of this molecule
What is Water?
This type of transport does not require energy.
What is passive transport?
This part of the endomembrane system is studded with ribosomes and helps produce proteins.
What is the rough ER?
What relationship does the Smooth ER have with Cell Membrane?
What is the smooth er creates the lipids that builds the structure of the cell membrane?
Active transport moves substances in this direction on the concentration gradient.
What is from low to high concentration?
In a hypotonic solution, water moves in this direction.
What is into the cell?
This process moves water across a membrane from high to low concentration.
What is Osmosis?
Lipids are mainly used in the body for energy storage, insulation and forming this cell structure.
What is the cell membrane?
What relationship does the Nucleus and the ribosomes have?
What is the nucleus contains the mRNA which are the instructions the ribosomes need to make proteins?
These proteins are used to pump molecules across the membrane using energy.
What are protein pumps?
A cell placed in a hypertonic solution will do this.
What is shrink (or shrivel)?
This type of passive transport uses proteins to move molecules like glucose.
What is facilitated diffusion?
Proteins are made up of these monomers (Building blocks).
What are amino acids?
What path (Organelles) would a LIPID take if it ends up inside the cell membrane?
What is SER, vesicle, Golgi, vesicle, cell membrane
This process brings large particles into the cell by forming a vesicle.
What is endocytosis?
A solution with equal solute concentration inside and outside the cell is called this.
What is isotonic?
Passive transport moves substances from this concentration to this concentration.
What is high to low concentration?
A plant cell in a hypotonic solution becomes swollen but doesn’t burst due to this structure.
What is the cell wall?
What path of organelles would a PROTEIN take if it ends up outside the cell?
What is the ribosome, RER, vesicle, Golgi, vesicle, cell membrane
The opposite of endocytosis, this process expels materials out of the cell.
What is exocytosis?
Why do cells placed in an hypertonic solution lose water?
What is a higher solute concentration in the solution that in the cell?
The movement of small, nonpolar molecules directly through the membrane is called this.
What is simple diffusion?
Osmotic pressure increases when there is a greater difference in this across a membrane.
What is solute concentration?
