Active transport The movement of things in and out of the cell with the use of energy.
Diffusion The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
Equilibrium A balanced state.
Osmosis diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane
Rehydrate To absorb or take in water.
Facilitated diffusion Transport proteins on the cell's membrane transport substances into and out of the cell without energy.
Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) a compound used by cells to store and release energy
chemical equation A representation of a chemical reaction that uses symbols to show the relationship between the reactants and the products
Metabolism the chemical reactions in the body's cells that change food into energy
Photosynthesis Is the chemical reaction a plant carries out in order to produce energy from sunlight
