Active and passive transport

Question 0

What is a hypertonic solution

Answer 0

When the concentration of the solute is higher

Question 1

What is an isotonic solution

Answer 1

When the concentration of a solute outside of the cell equals what’s on the inside

Question 2

What is a hypotonic solution

Answer 2

When the concentration of the solute is less

Question 3

What will happen to a cell kept in a hypertonic solution

Answer 3

Water will go into balance the solute concentration on either side

The cell will expand/ burst

Question 4

What happens to a cell in a hypotonic solution

Answer 4

The cell will shrink

Water will come out to balance the solute concentration on either side

Question 5

What will happen to a cell kept in isotonic solution

Answer 5

The cell will stay the same

Same amount of water moves into and out of the cell

Question 6

What is active transport

Answer 6

Movement of materials from a low concentration to a high one

Used energy ATP

Question 7

What is passive transport

Answer 7

Movement of materials from a high to a low concentration

Question 8

What are some types of active transport

Answer 8

Low»high

Exocytosis: movement of materials from inside to out of the cell

Endocytosis: movement of materials from outside to inside of cell

Question 9

What are types of passive transport

Answer 9

Diffusion: movement of materials from high to low

Osmosis: movement of water from high to low

Facilitated diffusion: movement of materials through the protein channel from high to low
