Q

The mass of solute in a given volume of solvent

A

Concentration

25
Q

movement of molecules from high concentration to low concentration

A

Diffusion

26

When the concentration of a solute is the same throughout the system

A

Equilibrium

27
Q

Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane

A

Osmosis

28
Q

When the concentration of a solute in both the cell and it’s surroundings are the same

A

Isotonic

29
Q

When the concentration of a solute is high on one side of a membrane

A

Hypertonic

30
Q

When the concentration of a solute is lower on one side of a membrane

A

Hypotonic

31
Q

When protein channels in the membrane allow certain materials to pass through

A

Facilitated Diffusion

32
Q

This is diffusion that requires energy from the cell. This involves the transport of small particles across the cell membrane using transport proteins (Pumps) in the membrane itself.

A

Active Transport

33
Q

Taking large material into a cell by growing the membrane around it.

A

Endocytosis

34
Q

Taking in solids - means “cell eating” - related to endocytosis

A

Phagocytosis

35
Q

Taking in liquids - related to endocytosis

A

Pinocytosis

36
Q

releasing large materials from a cell by growing the membrane behind the object/particle.

A

Exocytosis

37
Q

Cell Theory
