| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Hypertonic | The solution contains more solute that the cell |
| Facilitated diffusion | Passive transport that uses the help of carrier proteins. No energy |
| Permeable | Things are able to pass through it |
| Diffusion | The net movement of materials from an area of high concentration to low concentration, down a concentration gradient (down hill) |
| Semi-Permeable | only certain materials can pass through |
| passive Transport | cellular transport that does not require an input of energy: Diffusion and Facilitated Diffusion are examples of this |
| Hypotonic | The solution contains less solute than the cell |
| Osmosis | The diffusion of water through a semi-permeable membrane |
| Active Transport | Cellular Transport that requires an input of energy. Endocytosis and Ectocytosis are examples of this |
| Homeostasis | The ability to maintain a constant internal environment |
