Dynamic Equilibrium

• Site of cellular respiration, converting carbohydrates to ATP, with a double membrane and inner cristae.
• A state of balance between continuing processes.
• Movement of substances across the cell membrane using transport proteins without the use of energy.
• An explanation of evidence. The most likely explanation that makes all of the evidence make sense together.

Isotonic Solution

• A solution in which the concentration of solutes is the same both inside and outside the cell.
• Membrane encased regions in the cell that do specialized work.
• Molecule that keeps phospholipid tails from sticking together.
• Type of endocytosis where the cell engulfs solid particles.

Hypotonic Solution

• The extent to which a concept, conclusion, or measurement is well-founded and corresponds accurately to the real world
• A solution with a lower concentration of solutes compared to the inside of the cell.
• Passive transport of water across a semipermeable membrane.
• Shows data as proportions of a whole (using percentages)

Hypertonic Solution

• A solution with a higher concentration of solutes compared to the inside of the cell.
• Variable changed by the scientist in an experiment
• Consists of flattened sacs and channels; smooth ER synthesizes lipids, rough ER is the site of protein synthesis.
• Movement of substances across the cell membrane that requires energy.

Passive Transport

• Movement of substances across the cell membrane without the use of energy.
• Variable affected by the experiment and measured by the scientist
• Site of cellular respiration, converting carbohydrates to ATP, with a double membrane and inner cristae.
• Gelatin-like aqueous fluid called cytosol filling most of the cell except the nucleus, containing organelles.

Active Transport

• Visual representations of data
• Movement of substances across the cell membrane that requires energy.
• Passive transport of water across a semipermeable membrane.
• Movement of water through a plant

Diffusion

• Amount of water vapor in the air
• Supporting data or information
• Net movement of substances from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
• Logical conclusions based on evidence and reasoning

Facilitated Diffusion

• Different ways to quantify data
• Logical conclusions based on evidence and reasoning
• Movement of substances across the cell membrane using transport proteins without the use of energy.
• Essential parts required for a scientific experiment

Osmosis

• Concentration of DNA where ribosome components are produced; more than one is called nucleoli.
• Passive transport of water across a semipermeable membrane.
• Membrane encased regions in the cell that do specialized work.
• Cells that are very small and simple; includes all bacteria

EXTRAcellular

• Outside the cell.
• Molecules that receive chemical signals from outside the cell.
• Site of protein synthesis in the cell, composed of mRNA and proteins.
• Shows data as proportions of a whole (using percentages)
