the diffusion of water through the cell membrane is called
What is osmosis
100
the process in which a cell membrane surrounds a particle, encloses it in a vesicle to bring into the cell.
What is endocytosis
100
the process by which plants capture the sun's energy and make sugar.
What is photosynthesis
100
the life cycle of a cell
What is the cell cycle
200
the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
What is diffusion?
200
the process used to remove large particles from a cell.
What is exocytosis
200
the process of producing ATP from oxygen and glucose; releases carbon dioxide as a waste product.
What is cellular respiration
200
These are the 3 stages of a cell's life cycle
What is chromosome duplication, mitosis and cytokinesis
300
the diffusion of particles through proteins in the cell membrane from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration.
What is passive transport
300
Does a cell need to use energy to remove particles form areas of high concentration?
No
300
the breakdown of sugars to make ATP in the absence of oxygen
What is fermentation
300
the coiled structure of DNA
What is a chromosome
400
the movement of particles through proteins in the cell membrane against the direction of diffusion; requires the cells to use energy.
What is active transport?
