NGSS.HS-LS2-3

The movement of substances across a cell membrane with the use of energy.  Movement of particles occurs from a low to high concentration.

• Osmosis

• Diffusion

• Passive Transport

• Active Transport

The process by with animals use oxygen and glucose to make energy (ATP), carbon dioxide and water for the body.

• Chloroplast

• Mitochondria

• Photosynthesis

• Cellular Respiration

The movement of substances from high to low concentration across a cell membrane WITHOUT the use of energy by the cell.

• Endocytosis

• Passive Transport

• Exotcytosis

• Active Transport

A cell that lacks a nucleus or membrane bound organelles.  Examples include Eubacteria and Archaebacteria.

• Animal Cell

• Plant Cell

• Eukaryotic Cell

• Prokaryotic Cell

A cell that has a nucleus and membrane bound organelles.  Examples include cells that make up plants and animals.

• Prokaryotic Cell

• Eukaryotic Cell

• Eubacteria

• Archaebacteria

NGSS.MS-LS1-1

The condition in which all acting influences are BALANCED  by equal opposing forces, resulting in a stable system. For example, the amount of water both inside and outside of the cell is equal- when a water molecule moves across the cell membrane, one must also move in the opposite direction to keep the cell's fluid intake stable.

• Equilibrium

• Homeostasis

• Balanced Cell

• Equally Permeable

The process of keeping the internal environment stable.  For example, the body keeps the body temperature at 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.

• Equilibrium

• Homeostasis

• Equally Permeable

• Balanced Cell
