The Cell in Action - Sections 4-1 & 4-2

QuestionAnswer
What process is defined as the movement of particles through proteins from low to high concentration using energy; "uphill movement"? Active Transport
What process is defined as the process used to remove very large particles from a cell? Exocytosis
What process is defined as the partial breakdown of sugars to make ATP in the absence of oxygen; small amounts of ATP are produced? Fermentation
What process is defined as the process of producing ATP using oxygen and glucose; water and carbon dioxide are by-products; large amounts of ATP produced? Cell Respiration
What process is defined as the process where plants capture light energy and convert it into glucose; oxygen is a by-product? Photosynthesis
What process is defined as the diffusion of water across a cell membrane? Osmosis
What process is defined as the diffusion of particles through proteins in the cell membrane from high to low concentration; "downhill movement"? Passive Transport
What process is defined as the movement of particles from high to low concentration; does not require a cell membrane? Diffusion
What process is defined as the cell membrane surrounds a large particle, encloses it in a vesicle, and brings it inside a cell? Endocytosis
The exchange of materials between the cell and its environment occurs across the _______ ____. cell membrane
Diffusion can occur in living and ______ environments. nonliving
Cells like RBCs will _______ if they soak in salty water. shrink
Cells like RBCs will ______ if they soak in pure water like distilled water. swell
Active transport DOES require _______ to occur. energy
The _______ __________ can be described as a phospholipid bilayer. cell membrane
Many small molecules like water and ______ can diffuse directly through the cell membrane because they are so small oxygen
It is natural for particles to flow from ________ to ________ concentration. high to low
Sugar and ___________ _____________ are too big to pass directly through the cell membrane and they must have a protein "doorway." amino acids
Passive transport is the diffusion of particles through proteins from _________ to ___________ concentration through proteins without the use of energy. high to low
What is the abbreviation for cellular energy? ATP
Active transport is the diffusion of particles through proteins from _________ to ___________ concentration through proteins WITH the use of energy. low to high
Diffusion and passive transport do NOT utilize _________. energy
Cell membranes are composed of a _______________ bilayer. phospholipid
Why can oxygen, carbon dioxide and water pass so easily through the cell membrane? They are very small molecules.
Why do amino acids and sugars need a special protein carrier to get through the cell membrane? They are large molecules and they are repelled by the cell membrane.
_________ is a green pigment found in chloroplasts that is used in photosynthesis to convert UV light into glucose. Chlorophyll
Name the two ways that living organisms break down food molecules (glucose) for energy. cell respiration and fermentation
Cell respiration uses __________ gas. oxygen
____________ does NOT use oxygen gas to break down glucose to make ATP. Fermentation
Cell respiration makes more ___________ than fermentation. ATP
Name the two types of fermentation. yeast fermentation & lactic acid fermentation
Yeast fermentation is the process by which yeast and some types of bacteria convert sugar into ____________ and _______ _____________ gas. alcohol and carbon dioxide
Name two examples of yeast fermentation. bread rising and producing alcohol
Name two examples of lactic acid fermentation. making yogurt and in animal muscle cells following strenuous
Name the products of yeast fermentation. alcohol, carbon dioxide gas, and small amounts of ATP
Name the products of lactic acid fermentation. lactic acid and small amounts of ATP
In what organelle does cell respiration occur? mitochondria
In what organelle does photosynthesis occur? chloroplast

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
