Cellular Movement Quiz

Substances like oxygen pass through the cell without using energy.  This is called...

• osmosis
• filtration
• active transport
• passive transport

What is the name of the process in which water moves into or out of the cell membrane to maintain homeostasis and reach an equilibrium. 

• regulation
• endocytosis
• exocytosis
• osmosis

A flexible covering that protects the inside of a cell from the environment outside the cell 

• Cell Membrane
• Exocytosis 
• Aerobic Respiration 

What is the difference between active and passive transport?

• Active transport requires energy; passive transport does not
• Active transport moves molecules across cell membranes; passive transport does not 
• Active transport involves oxygen and water molecules; passive transport does not 

The cell membrane is semi-permeable. What does "permeable" mean?

• Extremely thick
• Extremely thin
• Able to be penetrated 

The movement of substances from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration

• diffusion
• osmosis
• cellular respiration

A reaction that eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells can use to obtain energy from food when oxygen levels are low 

• fermentation
• cellular respiration 
• photosynthesis 

a property of the cell membrane in which it can select what is allowed to enter and exit

• engulfing
• active transport
• selectively permeable
• passive transport

Which is true about active transport?

• It requires energy
• it does not require energy
• It moves substances down the concentration gradient
• it moves material from high to low concentration

This picture represents which type of cellular transport?
