What are a phosphate head AND two fatty acid tails?
The 3 organelles that differentiate Plant cells from Animal cells
What is the 3 C’s: cell wall, contractile vacuole, and chloroplast
The movement of molecules (solutes) from a high concentration to a low concentration without the use of energy.
What is diffusion?
The three main steps of cellular respiration.

What is photosynthesis?
The use of transport molecules and ATP to move molecules from a low solute concentration to a high solute concentration.
What is active transport?
The molecule ATP is made of….

What is the nucleolus; ribosomes?
The two fatty acid tails are ______. This means that they are ______.
hydrophobic; water-fearing
Anaerobic respiration leads to either of these two processes
What is lactic acid and alcohol fermentation?
Diffusion of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration with the use of transport proteins, BUT without the use of energy.
What is facilitated diffusion?
Where is energy stored in ATP?
What is the phosphate bonds
A structure within the cell that packages protein molecules for transport and secretion.
What is a Golgi apparatus?
In regards to permeability, the cell membrane is ______.

The cell theory states these 3 facts.
What is cells are the basic unit of life. All cells come from pre-existing cells and All cells are either unicellular or multicellular.
A mode of vesicular transport in which extracellular molecules bind to receptors on the plasma membrane, the plasma membrane sinks in and forms a vesicle, which is taken-in by the cell.
What is endocytosis?
