Jorge 10th CHAPTER 8 .1 CELL MEMBRANE
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| SIMPLE DIFFUSION | The movement of molecules in a high concentration to a low concentration. |
| FACILITATED DIFFUSION | the movement of particles across the plasma membrane using transport proteins without the use of energy. |
| OSMOSIS | diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane.important for maintaining homeostasis.water will move from where there’s more of it to where there’s less of it |
| EXOCYTOSIS | transports molecules out of the cell by an intercellular vesicle that fuses to the cell membrane and spills the cell in a process requiring energy. |
| ENDOCYTOSIS PHAGOCYTOSIS | is the process by which a cell often a phagocyte or a protest engulfs a solid particle to form an internal compartment |
| ENDOCYTOSIS PINOCYTOSIS | type of active transport where the vacuole binds with the plasma membrane and secretes material such as hormones from the cell |
| SEMIPERMEABLE | Allowing certain substances to pass through but not others. |
| HYPOTONIC | There is more water outside the cell than inside water moves into the cell cell swells up |
| HYDROPHOBIC | tending to repel or fail to mix with water. The opposite of hydrophilic. |
| HYPERTONIC | hypertonic solutionthere is more water inside the cell than outside |
| ISOTONIC | iWhat controls osmosis?isotonic solution. concentration of water is the same inside and outside the cell.no net movement of water into or out of the cell |
| HYDROPHILIC | Ability to mix with water |
| ACTIVE TRANSPORT | The movement of particles across the plasma membrane against a concentration gradient using energy |
| PASSIVE TRANSPORT | The movement of materials through a cell membrane without using energy.. |
