Chapter 2 The Cell

Question 1

Process of osmosis

Answer 1

Diffusion of water across a selectively preamble membrane into a region of higher solute concentration

Question 2

Diffusion

Answer 2

When substance scatter themselves evenly throughout available space

Question 3

Facilitated diffusion

Answer 3

process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a cell’s membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins

Question 4

Active transport (endocytosis)

Answer 4

process of cellular ingestion by which the plasma membrane folds inward to bring substances into the cell.

Question 5

Phagocytosis

Answer 5

The process by which a cell engulfs particles such as bacteria, other microorganisms, aged red blood cells, foreign matter,

Question 6

Pinocytosis

Answer 6

mode of endocytosis in which small particles are brought into the cell, forming an invagination, and then suspended within small vesicles.

Question 7

receptor mediated endocytosis

Answer 7

a process by which cells absorb metabolites, hormones, other proteins – and in some cases viruses – by the inward budding of plasma membrane vesicles containing proteins

Question 8

What kind of things can easily diffuse across the cell membrane

Answer 8

Carbon dioxide water and polar nonpolar molecules

Question 9

Cutaneous

Answer 9

skin = Integumentary system. We have the epidermis which is the outer epithelium tissue and dermis is the connective tissue.

Question 10

Synovial membrane

Answer 10

specialized connective tissue that lines the inner surface of capsules of synovial joints and tendon sheath.[

Question 11

Serious membrane

Answer 11

cavities of the body, forming a smooth, transparent, two-layered membrane lubricated by a fluid derived from serum. The peritoneum, pericardium, and pleura are serous membranes.
