QuestionAnswer
What is The movement of substances across a cell membrane WITHOUT any input of energy from the cell? Passive Transport
What is the simplest type of passive transport where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration and are driven by kinetic energy? Diffusion
What is when the concentration of the molecules of a substance are the same throughout a space ? Equilibrium
What is when water molecules diffuse across a cell membrane from an area of higher concentration of H2O to an area of lower concentration ? Osmosis
What is the concentration of solute molecules outside the cell is lower than the inside of the cell and water moves into the cell ? Hypotonic
What is when the concentration of solute molecules outside the cell is higher than the inside of the cell and water moves out of the cell ? Hypertonic
What is when the concentrations of solutes outside and inside the cell are equal and no movement of water occurs ? Isotonic
What is when cells shrink away from cell walls ? Plasmolysis
What is the pressure of water against the cell wall ? Turgor pressure
What is the movement of molecules across a cell membrane through the use of carrier proteins ? Facilitated Diffusion
What is the movement of materials across a cell membrane that requires a cell to expend energy? Active Transport
What moves substances up their concentration gradient? Cell Membrane Pumps
What is a special protein that transports Na+ ions and K+ up their concentration gradients? Sodium-Potassium Pump
What is it called when cells ingest external fluid, macromolecules, and large particles (including other cells)? Endocytosis
What involves the transport of solutes or fluids? Pinocytosis
What involves the movement of large particles or whole cells? Phagocytosis
What is it called when vesicles in the cytoplasm fuse with the cell membrane and release their contents out of the cell? Exocytosis
What takes place from high concentration to an area of low concentration? diffusion
What is the simplest type of passive transport? diffusion
What is a process in which substances move down their concentration gradient across the cell membrane with the assitance of a coarrier protein? Facilitated Diffusion
Do molecules diffuse rapidly or slowly through the facilitated diffusion process? Slowly
T or F: Facilitated diffusion can assist substances to move either into or out of a cell. True
The transport of what substance is a good example of faciltated diffusion? Glucose
What is required in facilitated diffusion process? Carrier Protein
Provides small passageways for ions to diffuse across the lipid bilayer WITHOUT assistance Ion Channel
A carrier protein that represents active transports in animal cells that pumps potasisium (K) into the cell Sodium-Potassium Pump
What manufactures their own food from inorganic substances? Autotrophs
Autotrophes use __________________ to convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy Photosynthesis
The ultimate source of energy for living things come from the _________. Sun
What cannot manufacture their own food? Heterotrophs
How do heterotrophs obtain food? Hetertrophs obtain food by eating autotrophs or other heterotrophs
What involves a complex series of chemical reactions in which the product of one reaction is consumed in the next reaction? Photosynthesis
What is a byproduct of photosythesis? O2
What travels in waves? Light
The distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of another wave is called a _______________________ Wavelength
What compounds are responsible for absorbing light? Chloroplast Pigments
What absorbs more red light? Chlorophyll a
What absorbs more blue light? chlorophyll b
What absorbs more green light Carotenoids
Where are chlorophylls abundant? In the leaves of a plant
In the fall, plants lose their chlorophylls and their leaves take on the color of the _________________________. Carotenoids
What is the synthesis of ATP? Chemiosmosis
A plant's environment affects what? The rate of photosyntesis
What is the most important factor in the rate of photosynthesis? Light Intensity
When there is a higher light intensity what happens to more electrons? They become excited
CO2 affects the rate of ___________________ Photosynthesis
Temperature affects the rate of ____________________ Photosynthesis
Why would plant cells have both a chloroplast AND mitochondria? Sugars are made in chloroplasts AND stored and broken down by mitochondria to make ATP
Cellular respiration begins with a biochemical pahtway called Glycolysis
What is the main energy currency of cells? ATP
The complex process in which cells make ATP by breaking down organic compounds is called _________ __________. Cellular Respiration
What breaks down food in order to release stored energy? Cellular Respiration
As molecules break down, energy is stored as ATP and what is released? Heat
What begins the process of cellular respiration? glycolysis
What are the 4 main steps to glycolysis? 1. 6-carbon molecules of glucose is oxidized; 2. glucose is split; 3. molecules of pryuvate are made; 4. ATP molecules are produced
What is the net yield of glycolysis? 2 ATP

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.
