| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the movement of water through a membrane called? | osmosis |
| What are particles moving across a cell membrane without using energy called? | passive transport |
| What are the passageways in a cell membrane? | channels |
| What is the movement of particles from an area of low to an area of high concentration across a cell membrane? | active transport |
| What are two examples of passive transport? | diffusion and osmosis |
| What does a cell need to transport particles by active transport? | energy |
| What are the channels in a cell membrane made with? | proteins |
| What process is important to cell functions? | osmosis |
| What is the fluids mostly made of that surround and fill a cell? | water |
| What is the process by which a cell membrane surrounds and encloses a large particle to bring it into a cell? | endocytosis |
| What are the particles called that make up water? | molecules |
| What is the result of osmosis? | water particles move to where they are less concentrated |
| What is the process by which a cell membrane gets rid of large particles? | exocytosis |
| What part of the cell do materials pass through to get into and out of the cell? | cell membrane |
| What is a vesicle? | It is a sac formed from a piece of cell membrane, often used to move large particles into or out of a cell. |
| When does a cell not need to use energy? | diffusion |
| When wilted celery is soaked in water, it becomes crisp again due to what? | osmosis |
| What do all organisms need in order to live? | energy and raw materials |
| What do all organisms need to get rid of in order to live? | wastes |
| What helps wilted plants become firm during osmosis? | water |
| What does it require to move materials through a cell membrane by active transport? | energy |
