Cell Membrane

In passive transport, the concentration gradient goes from..

• Low to low

• High to low

• Low to high

• High to high

The cellular process in which materials are moved across a membrane from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration is called

• Osmosis
• Simple Diffusion
• Active Transport
• Passive Transport 

Describe the movement of molecules in the illustration.

• Molecules are moving from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. 
• Molecules are moving from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. 
• Molecules are moving from a higher concentration to a lower concentration and then from a lower to higher concentration.
• Molecules are moving from a lower concentration to a higher concentration and then from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. 

Osmosis is the diffusion of __________.

• water
• glucose
• air
• passive transport

Passive transport requires no

• concentration gradients
• osmosis
• motion
• energy

This cell organelle helps organisms maintain homeostasis by controlling what substances may enter or leave cells.

• vacuole
• nucleus
