M7L3 Vocabulary Review

Net movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration

• osmosis

• diffusion

• active transport

• exocytosis

condition of continuous, random movement of particles but no overall change in concentration of materials

• active transport

• hypotonic solution

• isotonic solution

• dynamic equilibrium

passive transport of ions and small molecules across the plasma membrane by transport proteins

• diffusion

• facilitated diffusion

• isotonic solution

• endocytosis

diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane

• exocytosis

• hypertonic solution

• osmosis

• diffusion

a solution with the same concentration of water and solutes as inside a cell, resulting in the cell retaining its normal shape because there is no net movement of water.

• osmosis

• isotonic solution

• hypotonic solution

• active transport

a solution that has a lower concentration of solute outside than inside the cell, causing water to flow into the cell by osmosis

• endocytosis

• hypotonic solution

• hypertonic solution

• isotonic solution

NGSS.HS-LS1-3

a solution that has a higher concentration of solute outside than inside a cell, causing water to leave the cell by osmosis.

• diffusion

• osmosis

• active transport

• hypertonic solution

energy-requiring process by which substances move across the plasma membrane against a concentration gradient

• osmosis

• active transport

• isotonic solution

• exocytosis

energy-requiring process by which large substances from the outside environment can enter a cell

• endocytosis

• exocytosis

• osmosis

• diffusion

energy-requiring process by which a cell expels wastes and secretes substances at the plasma membrane.
