cousins middle school, 7th grade, cell transport

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
active transport   the movement of substances across a cell membrane that uses ENERGY- can move LARGE particles (such as in endocytosis and exocytosis) OR move against equilibrium  
🗑
passive transport   this movement of a substance across a cell membrane that uses NO ENERGY- moves small particles- moves things from areas of high concentration to areas of less concentration until equilibrium is acheived  
🗑
endocytosis   a process in which a cell surrounds a particle and brings it in using energy- creates a vesicle around it  
🗑
exocytosis   a process in which a cell surrounds a particle and pushes it out using energy- creates a vesicle around it  
🗑
diffusion   movement of particles across a membrane from high concentration to lower concentration until equal= any substance other than water  
🗑
osmosis   same as diffusion but only with water  
🗑
photosynthesis   process by which plants (and some algae and bacteria) make glucose from the sun- happens in chloroplasts  
🗑
cellular respiration   process by which cells break down sugar for energy happens in the mitochondria, uses oxygen- water is a waste product  
🗑
fermentation   process by which the cell breaks down sugar for energy, happens in the cytoplasm, does not use oxygen- lactic acid and alcohol can be waste products  
🗑
homeostasis   the maintenance of a constant internal state in a changing environment- a cell's happy place  
🗑
semipermeable membrane   a barrier that lets some things go through, but not everything  
🗑
glucose   sugar  
🗑


   

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.
