Cell Transport

A balance that an organism maintains by regulating what goes into and out of the cell.

• Hypertonic
• Homeostasis
• Plasmolysis
• Hypotonic

The type of cellular transport that requires no energy.

• Active Transport
• Protein Pumps
• Passive Transport
• Endocytosis

The process of engulfing food or liquid particles into the cell.

• Osmosis
• Exocytosis
• Endocytosis
• Diffusion

The release of large particles, often waste materials from the inside of the cell to the outside of the cell.

• It swells
• Cytolysis

A cell with a 5% salt solution is placed into a beaker with a 10% salt solution.  This solution is considered to be _____ to the cell.

• Isotonic

• None of the Above

A cell with a 5% salt solution is placed into a beaker with a 10% salt solution.  What will happen to the cell?

• It will shrink
• It will swell
• No change
• Cytolysis

The cell membrane of the red blood cell will allow water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide to pass through. Because other substances are blocked from entering, this membrane is called

• perforated
• semi-permeable
• non-conducive
• permeable
