Cell Transport Study Stack

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

Question
Answer
holds the cell contents and controls what enters and leaves the cell   cell membrane  
🗑
Process by which molecules move from areas of high concentration to area of low concentration   diffusion  
🗑
molecules are pushed from regions of low concentrations to areas of high concentration   active transport  
🗑
process of taking materials into the cell by means of infoldings, or pockets of the cell membrane   endocytosis  
🗑
process by which water molecules diffuse through a membrane   osmosis  
🗑
diffusion occurs with the help of a carrier molecule across a cell membrane   facilitated diffusion  
🗑
The concentration of solutes is the same inside and outside the cell   isotonic solution  
🗑
The solution has a higher concentration of solutes that the cell   hypertonic solution  
🗑
The solution has a lower concentration of solutes than the cell   hypotonic solution  
🗑
membrane of the vacuole surrounding the material fuses with the cell membrane, forcing the contents out of the cell   Exocytosis  
🗑
molecules move with the concentration gradient, molecules spread out, does not require ATP (energy)   Passive transport  
🗑
molecules move against the concentration gradient, active transport requires ATP (energy)   active transport  
🗑
membrane is a fluid structure, which means it can rearrange itself in response to the environment   fluid mosaic  
🗑
“cell eating” extensions of the cytoplasm   phagocytosis  
🗑
pockets from along the cell membrane, fill with liquid and pinch off to form vacuoles within the cell   Pinocytosis  
🗑


   

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.
