17
Q

Osmosis

A

Movement of water across a membrane from high to low concentration

18
Q

Diffusion

A

Movement of particles across a membrane from high to low concentration

19
Q

Facilitated diffusion

A

Diffusion that requires transport proteins (ex. Glucose & other polar molecules)

20
Q

Active transport

A

Movement across a membrane from low to high concentration; requires ATP

21
Q

process of exporting bulky material such as proteins or polysaccharides

A

exocytosis

22
Q

transport process in which a cell takes in large molecules

A

endocytosis

23
Q

Cellular eating

A

phagocytosis

24
Q

cellular drinking

A

pinocytosis

25
Q

highly selective process in which receptor proteins for specific molecules are embedded in regions of the membrane that are lined by a layer of coat proteins

A

receptor-mediated endocytosis

26
Q

tonicity

A

the ability of a surrounding solution to cause a cell to gain or lose water

27
Q

isotonic

A

solute concentration of a cell and its environment are equal

28
Q

hypotonic solution

A

a solution with a solute concentration lower than that of the cell; cell gains water & lyses (burst)

29
Q

Hypertonic solution

A

a solution with a higher solute concentration; cell shrivels and can die from water loss

30
Q

osmoregulation

A

control of water balance
