2023 Fall Final Review (under construction)

Front

What is Active Transport Pump?

Back

A process that moves molecules across a cell membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration, using energy (ATP).

Front

What is the last step in the scientific method?

Back

Make a Conclusion: The final step where results are analyzed and a conclusion is drawn based on the data collected.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

A metabolic process that converts chemical energy from glucose and other carbon-based molecules into ATP, using oxygen.

Front

What does hypertonic mean?

Back

A solution that has a higher concentration of solutes compared to another solution, leading to water moving out of cells.

Front

What is a carbohydrate?

Back

A biomolecule made of monosaccharides, serving as a primary energy source for living organisms.

Front

What is osmosis?

Back

The movement of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration.

Front

What is facilitated diffusion?

Back

A passive transport process that uses transport proteins to help move molecules across the cell membrane without energy.

Front

What is a hypothesis?

Back

A proposed explanation for a phenomenon, which can be tested through experiments.

Front

What is the purpose of running an experiment in the scientific method?

Back

To test the hypothesis and gather data to support or refute it.

Front

What is isotonic solution?

Back

A solution that has the same concentration of solutes as another solution, resulting in no net movement of water.
