100

___________ is a process that takes substances into the cell

Endocytosis

200

held together by peptide bonds, used to make proteins

amino acids

200

Proteins that convert reactants to products by making a chemical reaction go faster.

Enzyme

200

Large numbers of ribosomes exit in what part of the cell and what do they do?

Rough ER and synthesize proteins

True or False: diffusion moves molecules to an area of lower concentration.

False

200

______________ is a process that releases substance outside the cell

Exocytosis

Membrane Receptor

300

True or False: Active transport moves molecules from low concentration to high concentration.

True

Activation energy needed for a chemical reaction is decreased by a

Catalyst

400

Which organelle is involved in the production of energy molecules for the cell

mitochondria

400

A molecule that sends a messsage to the cell by binding to which type of molecule in the cytoplasm  or inside of the cell.

Intercellular Receptor

The vacuole will (Absorb/release) water when a cell is put into a higher salt concentration compared to its own contents.

Release - water is flowing out of the cell
