QuestionAnswer
what does Lugol's Solution test for and what color does it change to? starch. It goes from a golden-brown to a clue-black.
what does's Benedict test for and what color does it turn to? glucose. It turn orange if sugar is present
what does " moving along a concentration gradient " mean? the particle are moving from higher concentration to lower concentration
What is diffusion? The process where molecules of a substance move from high concentration to low concentration
What is osmosis? The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
What cell transport method may be with the concentration gradient? passive transport
what does passive transport require? no energy
What does passive transport move without energy? materials from high to low
what does passive transport include? diffusion , osmosis & facilitated diffusion
What is diffusion the movement of? molecules from high to low
What is osmosis the movement of? water from high to low
what is facilitation diffusion the movement of? molecules with the help of open channel proteins
What are the three solution time of osmosis? hypotonic, isotonic , & hypertonic
What do the 3 solution types equal? solute + solvent
what does hypotonic mean? low solutes , more water
Where will the water move in a hypotonic solution? into the cell
What will water moving into the cell in a hypotonic solution cause? swelling of the cell
What does isotonic mean? solutes equal water
where will the water move in an isotonic solution? in and out of the cell causing equilibrium
What does hypertonic mean? high solutes , less water
where will water move in a hypertonic solution? out of the cell
when water moves out of the cell in a hypertonic solution, what does it cause the cell to do? shrivel
What cell transport method may be against the concentration gradient? active transport
what does active transport require? energy in the form of ATP
what does active transport use ATP for? to move materials from low to high
What does active transport include? carrier proteins ( gated channel proteins ) , and pieces of the cell membrane
what are pieces of the cell membrane called? vesicles
what are included in the vesicles? exocitosis (out) and endocytosis (in)
what are the two types of endocytosis? pinocytosis (liquid) & phagocytosis (solids)
What is the function of the cell membrane? regulates what enters and leaves the cell
how many layers of lipids are there in the cell membrane? and what are those layers called? two layers. Hence the names bilayer
What do proteins to in the cell membrane? form gates , channels or piper that move materials into or out of the cell
what to carbohydrate chains to in the cell membrane? provide cell identification, so that cells can recognize each other
what is the cell membrane also known as? Fluid Mosaic Model
why is the cell membrane sometimes called the fluid mosaic model? because the cells seems to assemble to form a design
What is the cell wall? it's the part of the cell that lies outside the cell membrane and are porous enough to allow water , oxygen , and carbon dioxide to pass through easily
what is cellulose? makes up both wood and paper. this material makes up the cell wall
Where are cell walls present? in plants , algae , fungi , and many prokaryotes ( bacteria )
What does it mean when a cell membrane is permeable? it allows substances to pass through. ex. water through a strainer
what does it mean when a cell membrane is selectively permeable or semi-permeable? it only allows certain molecules to pass through
when can cells not pass through the membrane? if they are too big or strongly charged
what two ways can a molecule pass through membranes? passive and active transports
what is passive transport? molecules pass through the cell membrane without the use of energy
what is active transport? energy is necessary for molecules to pass through the cell membrane
what does ATP stand for? adenosine Diphosphate
what are the three types of passive transport? diffusion , osmosis , facilitated diffusion
what is solute? the substance being dissolved
what is the solvent? the liquid that the solute is being dissolved in
what is a solution? a mixture of a solvent and a solute
What is equilibrium in a cell? when particles pass through the membrane without any added energy
In equilibrium what are the particles like? they are in constant motion back and forth across the membrane
is there a net change in a equlibruim concentration? no net change
What are the cell membranes like in osmosis? they are completely permeable to water , therefore , the environment the cell in exposed to can have a dramatic effect on the cell
what does isotonic mean? " same strength " when the concentration of each side of the membrane is the same
what does hypertoic mean? " above strength " solution has a higher solute solution than the cell
what does hypotonic mean? " below strength " solution had a lower solute concentration than the cell
what is facilitated diffusion? when a cell membrane protein facilitates or helps a molecule diffuse through the membrane
What is a type of facilitated diffusion? ion channel
what is ion channel? transport of a protein with a polar pore through which ions can pass
In which way to pump ions and molecules move across the membrane? from high to low concentration
protons are pumped across the membrane from low to high concentration with the help of what? ATP
What does the Sodium Potassium Pump do? pumps sodium ( Na+ ) out with potassium (K+) is pumped in
How are the materials in the sodium potassium pump, pumped? against the concentration gradient
How are substances that are too large moved across the membrane? by proteins that are transported through the membrane by vesicles
what are examples of proteins that move through the help of vesicles? proteins and polysacharides
What is the process of the movement in vesicles ? by forming a pouch around the substance the pinching off and releasing the substance on the opposite side of the cell
What is exocytosis? where wastes and cells products packaged by the golgi apparatus in sacs, fuse with the cell membranes and are released from the cell
What is phagocytosis used by> amoebas?
what do phagocytes destroy? bacteria
what is receptor-mediated endocytoisis? it is very specific in what substances are being transported. The receptor triggers the formation of a vesicle

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
