Cell Membrane

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Fluid Mosiac   A model that refers to how the lipid bilayer acts more like a liquid than a solid. Also, has proteins.  
🗑
Active Transport   Energy Needed. Low to High concentration. Material moving through a protein channel.  
🗑
Passive Transport   No Energy needed. High to Low concentration. Includes- Osmosis, Diffusion, and Facilitated Diffusion.  
🗑
Diffuion   High to Low movement of molecules. No Energy.  
🗑
Osmosis   Diffusion of water from an area of High concentraion to an area of Low concentration.  
🗑
Endocytosis   Materials entering cells. ( ENdocytosis)  
🗑
Exocytosis   Materials exiting cells. ( EXocytosis)  
🗑
Hydrophobic   Substance that resists dissolving in water.  
🗑
Hydrophilic   Mixes with water.  
🗑
Isotonic   No change in cell shape. Describes a solution whose solute concentration is equal to the solute concentraion inside the cell.  
🗑
Phospholipid   Molecule that makes up the bilayer of biological membranes.  
🗑
Hypotonic   Solute concentration is lower than the solute concentraion inside the cell. ( LOW )  
🗑
Hypertonic   Solute concentraion is higher than the solute concentaion inside the cell. ( HIGH )  
🗑
Protein Channel   Passes large molecules that can't go through the membrane. It is like a channel that has a path for larger molecules to go through.  
🗑
Facilitated Diffusion   Passive Transport. Uses transport proteins to move substances down the concentration gradient.  
🗑
Concentration Gradient   Substances moving from High to Low areas.  
🗑
Solution   Solutes dissolved in solvents.  
🗑
Solute   Substance dissolved in a solution  
🗑
Solvent   In a solution, substance dissolves in solutes.  
🗑


   

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.
