Transport, Photosynthesis, Respiration

        Help!  

Question
Answer
active transport   moving material across cell membrane against concentration gradient requiring energy  
🗑
passive transport   movement of materials across cell membrane from high to low concentration not requiring energy (diffusion and osmosis)  
🗑
hypertonic   solution with a greater concentration of solutes than the cell (in our case)  
🗑
hypotonic   solution with lower concentration of solutes than the cell (in our case)  
🗑
isotonic   when the concentration of two solution is the same  
🗑
cell   basic unit of all living things enclosed in a barrier that separates its inside from its surroundings  
🗑
prokaryote   cell with no true nucleus or no other membrane bound organelles, all unicellular  
🗑
eukaryote   organized cell with a nucleus and other bound organelles that make up all plants and animals  
🗑
organelle   specialized structures that perform important cellular functions in eukaryotic cells  
🗑
ATP   adenosiine triphosphate. The energy used in the cell.  
🗑
semi-permeable   a membrane that only allows certain molecules to pass through it  
🗑
diffusion   the action of molecules moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration  
🗑
osmosis   diffusion of water through a semi-permeable membrane  
🗑
photosynthesis   carbon dioxide and water get together in sunlight to form glucose and oxygen  
🗑
aerobic cellular respiration   glucose and oxygen get together with some energy to form carbon dioxide and water  
🗑
chloroplast   site of photosynthesis  
🗑
mitochondria   site of cellular respiration  
🗑
anaerobic respiration   producing ATP in a cell without any oxygen present  
🗑
xylem   this is responsible for taking water from the roots to the rest of the plant  
🗑
green   chloroplasts can absorb all light from the visible light spectrum except this col  
🗑
carbon dioxide   product of cellular respiration and reactant of photosynthesis, we exhale it  
🗑
oxygen   product of photosynthesis and reactant in aerobic respiration, we inhale it  
🗑
stomata   tiny openings in leaves that allow carbon dioxide into the plant and oxygen and water out  
🗑
chlorophyll   green pigment in chloroplast that traps light energy for photosynthesis  
🗑
autotroph   an organism that manufactures its own food  
🗑
heterotroph   an organism that is dependent on taking in other organisms for nutrition  
🗑
roots   the majority of water taken in by plants enters here  
🗑
algae   single cell organism that along with plants does photosynthesis supplying the Earth with oxygen  
🗑


   

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.
