Active & Transive Import

QuestionAnswer
What happens when a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution? water will move into the cell, causing the cell to swell and maybe even burst.
What happens when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution? water will leave the cell, causing the cells to shrink and shrivel.
What’s the main difference between active and passive transport? In passive transport the molecules move down the cell's concentration gradient, but in active transport the molecules move against the cell's concentration gradient.
List an example of active transport. Nerve Cells
List the types of passive transport. diffusion, ion channels and solutions .
What is diffusion? Movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration; requires no energy.
Explain the results of a sodium-potassium pump working across a membrane. It moves sodium Ions to the outside of the cell  and potassium Ions to the inside.
Does facilitated transport move a substance down or up a gradient? Down
What is the energy-capturing stage of photosynthesis? Chlorophyll
What are the products of the light reactions? It captures light & produces food
What are the ATP and NADPH from the light reactions used for? to fix carbon dioxide into sugar 
Where does the oxygen released by photosynthesis come from? From the carbon dioxide and water with the energy from the sun
What happens to the glucose produced from photosynthesis? it can be formed into long chains as cellulose or or a structural carbohydrate as starch.It  can also be used as the backbone of fatty acids, or amino acids
Describe the structures of the chloroplast where photosynthesis takes place. It has an outer membrane which surrounds the chloroplast and an inner membrane which forms flatten sacs called thylakoids. As a result their are 2 separate spaces inside the chloroplast. The interior space that surrounds the thylakoids is filled with a f
What is the significance of the electron transport chain? It transfers electrons
What are the reactants required for photosynthesis? Carbon dioxide and Water
What are the products of photosynthesis? Glucose and Oxygen
What are the products of alcoholic fermentation? Ethyl Alcohol and Carbon Dioxide
What is the metabolic process where glucose is ultimately converted to two molecules of pyruvate? glycolysis
Why do your muscles get sore after vigorous exercise? The buildup of lactate
What is the purpose of fermentation? to allow organisms to obtain the 2 net  ATP molecules per glucose from glycolysis.
Where does the citric acid cycle take place? Within the mitochondria
Write the chemical reaction for the overall process of cellular respiration. C6H12O6 + 6O2  6CO2 + 6H2O
Which is more efficient, aerobic or anaerobic cellular respiration? Aerobic Cellular Respiration
What are the important electron-accepting enzymes in cellular respiration? ATP
What is chemiosmosis? the diffusion of ions across the membrane

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.
