| 8194495723 | Hypotonic solution | Causes a cell to swell |  | 14 |
| 8194495724 | Peripheral Proteins | On the surface of a plasma membrane |  | 15 |
| 8194495725 | Integral proteins | Found IN the membrane and create channels |  | 16 |
| 8194495726 | facilitated diffusion | Use of an integral protein to move a molecule from a high concentration to a low concentration across a membrane with out energy (ex. Glucose) |  | 17 |
| 8194495727 | active transport | uses cell energy (ATP) to pull molecules from low to high concentration |  | 18 |
| 8194495728 | resting membrane potential | extracellular positive charge while muscle and nerve cell are resting |  | 19 |
| 8194495729 | depolarized | extracellular negative charge while muscle and nerve cells are 'working' |  | 20 |
| 8194495730 | bulk transport | needs energy (ATP) and is used for substances that are too large to pass through the lipid bilayer or a protein channel |  | 21 |
| 8194495731 | cystic fibrosis | an inherited disease which forms abnormal Cl- Pumps |  | 22 |
| 8194495732 | 2 types of bulk transport | endocytosis and exocytosis |  | 23 |
| 8194495733 | 2 Types of endocytosis | phagocytosis and pinocytosis | 24 | |
| 8194495734 | phagocytosis | cell eating |  | 25 |
| 8194495735 | pinocytosis | cell takes in liquid |  | 26 |
| 8194495736 | exocytosis | opposite of endocytosis and secretes substances out of the cell |  | 27 |
| 8194495737 | glycoprotein | sugar chain attached to a protein |  | 28 |
| 8194495738 | Glycoprotein function | Anchors cells/cell to cell recognition |  | 29 |
