Cell Processes

TermDefinition
four functions of living things grow, obtain nutrients, remove waste, reproduce
diffusion the movement of particles from high concentration to low concentration
Osmosis diffusion of water
hypotonic to grow, lower concentration of water inside cell, so water moves in
semi-permeable only certain substances can pass through
hypertonic cell shrinks, lower concentration of water outside cell, so water moves out
isotonic equilibrium has been reached, cell won't change size
active transport larger particles moving from low concentration to high concentration
passive transport smaller particles moving from high concentration to low concentration
ATP energy
endocytosis "within the cell"
exocytosis "outside the cell"
cellular respiration animal cells using oxygen to break down food (glucose)
photosynthesis plant cells using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to make food
active transport requires energy
passive transport does not require energy
cellular fermentation breaks down glucose without the use of oxygen
chlorophyll pigment that absorbs light energy and gives plants its green color

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.
