The Cell in its Enviroment
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The process by which molecules move from an area of low concentration to high concentration. | Diffusion |
| What causes diffusion? | Collisions of molecules cause molecules to push away from one another. |
| The diffusion of water molecules through a semi-permiable membrane. | Osmosis |
| The movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without using cellular energy. | Passive Transport |
| The movement of materials through the cell membrane using celluar energy. | Active Transport |
| The process by which cells "withdraw" energy from glucose. | Respiration |
| The raw materials of respiration. | Glucose and Oxygen |
| Respiration Equation | Glucose+Oxygen->Carbon Dioxide+ATP |
| Splitting of Sugar | Glycolysis |
| These pick up molecules outside of the cell membrane and carry them in, using energy. | Transport Protiens |
| Usually not permeable in the membrane | large molecules, salts |
| Molecules that eventually spread evenly throughout the area. | Equilibrium |
