5193427516Exocytosis (image)What specific type of transport is this?1
5193427517Sodium-Potassium Pump (image)This is a specific example of ACTIVE TRANSPORT especially important in nerve and muscle cells. What is it called?2
5193427518Active transport (image)What type of transport?3
5193427519Passive Transport (simple diffusion) (image)What type of transport?4
5193427520Diffusion (image)Net movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration.5
5193427521Facilitated Diffusion (image)What type of transport?6
5193427522Simple DiffusionOxygen moves from the blood into a cell by this process.7
5193427524Passive TransportRequires no energy from the cell (simple diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion).8
5193427525OsmosisDiffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane.9
5193427527Hypertonic Solution (image)Solution surrounding this cell is a(n)____.10
5193427528a hypertonic solutionConcentration of solute is higher OUTSIDE of the cell than inside. This solution is ____.11
5193427529HypertonicWater will leave the cell if the SURROUNDING solution is12
5193427530Hypotonic Solution (image)The solution surrounding these cells is a(n) ____.13
5193427531HypotonicConcentration of solute is higher INSIDE the cell than outside. The solution surrounding the cell is ____.14
5193427532Hypotonic SolutionWater will move into the cell if the SURROUNDING solution is15
5193427533Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide (small, non-polar molecules)Molecules that move freely through the cell membrane16
5193427534Carrier protein with ATP-binding site; ATPWhat does Active Transport Require?17
5193427535Endocytosis, Exocytosis, Active Transport3 Types of Transport requiring energy.18
5193427537Facilitated DiffusionPassive process in which ions or molecules pass across a membrane with help from a channel or carrier protein.19
5193427538Facilitated Diffusion (w/ carrier protein)Glucose moves into the cell by this process20
5193427540Active TransportSodium-Potassium Pump is an example of this.21
5193427544PhagocytosisPseudopodia are used to surround smaller cells. "Cell eating."22
5193427545CytolysisBursting of a cell23
5193427546PinocytosisIn-folding of plasma membrane creates a vesicle as cell "gulps" extracellular fluid (which may or may NOT contain needed nutrients).24
5193427547PlasmolysisCell shrinking due to movement of water out.25
5193427548Receptor-mediated endocytosisCell "gulps" extracellular fluid ONLY when a specific nutrient IS present in extracellular fluid.26
5193427549SecretionExocytosis of useful cellular product (usually protein).27
5193427550Hypotonic, water will enter the cells so the veggies will be firmWhen vegetables are sprayed with water in the grocery store, what type of solution are they trying to maintain?28
5193683686ExcretionExocytosis of cellular wastes.29
