Crossword- Down

Question 1

Active transport

Answer 1

Able to move molecules against concentration gradient

Question 2

No net movement

Answer 2

When solutions on either side of membrane are same concentration of water or solute

Question 3

Turgor pressure in plants

Answer 3

Important in plants cells because as cells start to lose turgor pressure it wilts

Question 4

Solute

Answer 4

The substance that is being dissolved in a solution

Question 5

Carrier protein

Answer 5

Uses ATP to change shape to move molecules across cell membrane

Question 6

Osmosis

Answer 6

Special type of diffusion where water is the moving substance

Question 7

Hydrophobic

Answer 7

“Water fearing” - molecules that don’t mix well with charges or polar molecules

Question 8

Isotonic

Answer 8

Refers to solution with same concentration when compared to another solution

Question 9

Peripheral protein

Answer 9

Only passes part way through lipid bilayer of cell membrane

Question 10

Active

Answer 10

Type of protein transport that requires ATP as an energy source

Question 11

Gycolipid

Answer 11

A carbohydrate chain attached to lipid molecule in cell membrane

Question 12

Hydrophilic

Answer 12

“Water loving” - molecules which mix well with charged or polar molecules

Question 13

Concentration gradient

Answer 13

Rate of diffusion can be increased by increasing concentration gradient

Question 14

Osmotic pressure

Answer 14

Occurs when there is a concentration gradient across a membrane and only water is able to pass through the membrane

Question 15

Cell recognition protein

Answer 15

Has glycoproteins attached which are unique to each organisms and aid in immune system recognition

Question 16

ATP

Answer 16

This molecule is the energy currency of the cell

Question 17

Diffusion

Answer 17

Movement of molecules along a concentration gradient

Question 18

Glycoprotein

Answer 18

A carbohydrate chain attached to a protein in the cell membrane

Question 19

Endocytosis

Answer 19

Movement of a vacuole into the cell

Question 20

Integral protein

Answer 20

Passes all the way through lipid bilayer of cell membrane

Question 21

Hypertonic

Answer 21

Refers to solution that is more concentrated when compared to another solution

Question 22

Passive

Answer 22

When movement of molecules don’t require additional energy input

Question 23

Turgor pressure

Answer 23

If a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, turgor pressure will develope

Question 24

Channel protein

Answer 24

Allows a particular ion or molecule to pass through it with the concentration gradient and without ATP
