How do materials get into an out of the cell

        Help!  

Question
Answer
CONCENTRATION GRADIENT   The difference in the concentration of a substance across a distance.  
🗑
EQUILIBRIUM?   The state in which the distribution of a substance is even throughout a region.  
🗑
DIFFUSION   The movement of any substance from a region where its concentration is higher to a region where its concentration is lower.  
🗑
OSMOSIS   The movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane from a more dilute solution to a more concentrated solution.  
🗑
SELECTIVE PERMEABILITY   Certain substances can pass through the cell membrane. Some substances cannot get through.  
🗑
PHOSPHOLIPID   A substance macromolecule of a phosphate group and two fatty acids.  
🗑
CARRIER PROTEIN   Transports specific substances across a cell membrane.  
🗑
SODIUM-POTASSIUM PUMP   A type of carrier protein that uses active transport to take sodium ions out of the cell and bring potassium ions into the cell.  
🗑
LIPID BILAYER   A double layer of phospholipids that is the foundation of a biological membrane  
🗑
PASSIVE TRANSPORT   The movement of materials across the cell membrane that does not require energy on the part of the cell.  
🗑
ACTIVE TRANSPORT   The movement of materials across the cell membrane that requires energy on the part of the cell.  
🗑
VESICLE   A type of organelle that transports packaged materials into or out of the cell.  
🗑
ENDOCYTOSIS   Moves substances into the cell using the cell membrane to create a vesicle.  
🗑
EXOCYTOSIS   Moves substances out of the cell by connecting a vesicle with the cell membrane and releasing the contents to the environment.  
🗑
HYPERTONIC SOLUTION   Water diffuses out of the cell and and the cell shrinks.  
🗑
HYPOTONIC SOLUTION   Water diffuses into the cell and the cell swells.  
🗑
ISOTONIC SOLUTION   Water diffuses equally into and out of the cell- maintaining equilibrium.  
🗑
HOMEOSTASIS   The cell maintains balanced using chemistry and temperature  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
