| Glucose stored in the liver is called? | Glycogen |
| What is the pathway or process in which a cell breaks down glucose into energy. | Glycolysis |
| What is the cell membrane that allows some substances to enter or leave while restricting the passage of others? | Semi-permeable membrane |
| What is a solution that has an osmotic pressure equal to normal body fluid? | Isotonic |
| What is a solution that has an osmotice pressure less than that of normal body fluid? | Hypotonic |
| What is a solution that has an osmotice pressure greater than that of normal body | Hypertonic |
| If you place a red blood cell into a hypotonic solution, what will happen to the cell? | The cell will swell and burst. |
| If you place a red blood cell into a hypertonic solution, what will happen to the cell | The cell is going to shrink. |
| What is the continual movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to one of a lower concentration until even throughout available space? | Diffusion |
| what is the movement of water across the semipermeable membrane called? | Osmosis |
