Cell Transport

Front

What is Selective Permeability?

Back

The ability of the cell membrane to allow some things to pass through while preventing other things from passing through.

Front

What type of transport is shown in the diagram?

Back

Protein pump

Front

What does passive transport require?

Back

NO energy.

Front

Which type of solution makes a cell shrink?

Back

Hypertonic.

Front

What is the movement of water from a high concentration to a low concentration called?

Back

Osmosis.

Front

What is the definition of Active Transport?

Back

The movement of materials against a concentration gradient, requiring energy.

Front

What is Diffusion?

Back

The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Front

What is Osmosis?

Back

The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane.

Front

What is Facilitated Diffusion?

Back

The process of passive transport of molecules across a cell membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins.

Front

What is a Hypotonic solution?

Back

A solution that has a lower concentration of solutes compared to another solution.
