Term
Definition
four functions of living things   grow, obtain nutrients, remove waste, reproduce  
🗑
diffusion   the movement of particles from high concentration to low concentration  
🗑
Osmosis   diffusion of water  
🗑
hypotonic   to grow, lower concentration of water inside cell, so water moves in  
🗑
semi-permeable   only certain substances can pass through  
🗑
hypertonic   cell shrinks, lower concentration of water outside cell, so water moves out  
🗑
isotonic   equilibrium has been reached, cell won't change size  
🗑
active transport   larger particles moving from low concentration to high concentration  
🗑
passive transport   smaller particles moving from high concentration to low concentration  
🗑
ATP   energy  
🗑
endocytosis   "within the cell"  
🗑
exocytosis   "outside the cell"  
🗑
cellular respiration   animal cells using oxygen to break down food (glucose)  
🗑
photosynthesis   plant cells using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to make food  
🗑
active transport   requires energy  
🗑
passive transport   does not require energy  
🗑
cellular fermentation   breaks down glucose without the use of oxygen  
🗑
chlorophyll   pigment that absorbs light energy and gives plants its green color  
🗑


   

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.
