15
Q

Diffusion

A

Net movement of particles from more concentrated to less.

16
Q

Concentration Gradient

A

Differences between two concentrations, molecules always move down the concentration gradient

17
Q

Equilibrium

A

Point where number of diffusing molecules moving in one direction is equal to the moving in the opposite direction

18
Q

Passive transport

A

Selectively permeable membrane allows some substances to cross membrane more easily and block others with no energy

19
Q

Facilitated diffusion

A

Pathway provided by transport proteins that help certain molecules pass through a membrane

20
Q

Osmosis

A

The passive transport of water across a selectively permeable membrane

21
Q

Hypertonic solution

A

Solution with higher concentration of solute

22
Q

Hypotonic solution

A

Solution with a lower solute concentration

23
Q

Isotonic

A

Water concentration of a solute is equal

24
Active transport
Cell expands energy to move molecules and ions across the membrane
25
Transport proteins
Pump solute from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration(against the gradient)
26
Chromatin
DNA attached to long protein fibers
27
Ribosomes
Protein synthesis
28
Endoplasmic reticulum
A network of membranes that handles manufacturing and transportation
29
Rough ER
Ribosomes attached proteins are packaged into vesicles for transport
30
Smooth ER
No ribosomes, build lipid molecules
31
Golgi apparatus
Processing and shipping center if the cell, routes proteins and other products
32
Vacuoles
Large membrane bound sacs, stores I digested nutrients
33
Lysosomes
Contain digestive enzymes that break down proteins, nucleic acids and polysaccharides digest food, bacteria, damaged organelles
34
Mitochondria
Site of cellular respiration, forms ATP- main energy source for cells
35
Microtubule
Straight hollow tubes of protein give cells rigidly, shape and organization
36
Microfilaments
Thin solid rods of protein enable cell to change shape
37
Flagella
Long thin whiplike, made of | microtubules
38
Cilia
Shorter and more numerous, can help an organism move or make mucus move down the esophagus
