What is the cell membrane?
Back
The cell membrane is a biological membrane that separates and protects the interior of all cells from the outside environment. It regulates what enters and leaves the cell.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Define isotonic solution.
Back
An isotonic solution is one where the concentration of solutes is equal inside and outside the cell, resulting in no net movement of water.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Define hypotonic solution.
Back
A hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of solutes compared to the inside of the cell, causing water to enter the cell and potentially leading to swelling or bursting.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Define hypertonic solution.
Back
A hypertonic solution has a higher concentration of solutes compared to the inside of the cell, causing water to leave the cell and potentially leading to shrinkage.

What is passive transport?
Back
Passive transport is the movement of substances across a cell membrane without the use of energy, typically along a concentration gradient.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is active transport?
Back
Active transport is the movement of substances against a concentration gradient, requiring energy (usually in the form of ATP) to occur.
