Science cell transpo

QuestionAnswer
Why is the cell membrane made up of lipids the fatty acid part is hydrophobic meaning it hates water and the head is water lovers therefore the membrane keeps water out of the cell and the cytoplasm in. It also provides protection
Passive energy goes from _____ to _____ concentration high to low
what are the 3 types of passive DIffusion (does not need help) Facilitated diffusion (large and charged) Osmosis (small and uncharged)
3 types of molecules in passive isotonic hypertonic hypotonic
Where are proteins located cell membrane
Active energy goes from _____ to _____ concentration low to high
2 types ofactive Extocytosis (exits the cell) Endocytosis (enters the cell)
in hypotonic cells will swell
in hypertonic cells will shrink
in isotonic cells will stay the same
Explain cell transport (passive/active) using a bike and a hill Passive transport is like riding a bike downhill which requires no energy. using passive transport while going up hill requires active energy and using pedals.
Why are cells super small Smaller cells are more efficient because the surface area:volume is higher. the higher the ratio the more cells cross through the membrane.
Why can't nemo live in fresh water? what happens to the cells Nemo's cells are adapted to salt water so if he drank salt water his cells would swell and he would die.
Explain facilitated diffusion transport Molecules transported from high to low with help from the protein channels
what type of molecules use facilitated diffusion transport Large and charged molecules
Explain diffusion transport Molecules transported from high to low
What type of molecules use diffusion transport Small and uncharged molecules
Explain osmosis transport Its passive so it moves
What type of molecules use osmosis transport Water molecules
Bulk items enter the cell using energy
Bulk items exit the cells using energy
the cell membrane is said to be Selectively permeable
why is the cell membrane said to be Selectively permeable Because it regulates interaction inside and outside environment
what are the 3 molecules the cell membrane is primarily made of Lipids Proteins Carbohydrates
What is the role of lipids in cell membrane forms the main part of the membrane around the cell
what is the role of proteins pumps to help material move across the membrane
what is the role of carbohydrates allows cells to identify one another
what is the role of passive transport when no energy is required
why is it so important for your body to maintain water or sugar homeostasis because without it water will leave your bodys cells would shrivel up and die
why is it important to have low white blood cells that perform endocytosis because it catches all the bacteria
what is the difference between phagocytosis and pinocytosis Phagocytosis is when your cells use endocytosis to pull in liquid particles and Pinocytosis is when cells use endosytosis to pull in solid particles

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.
