Cells and Cell Processes Review

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

• Osmosis

• Exocytosis

• Endocytosis

• Diffusion

What is unique about the cell membrane that allows for transport?

• it is a stiff outer layer

• it is semi-permeable

• it is box-like

• it does not allow for movement

What type of transport is this picture showing?

• osmosis

• diffusion

• passive transport

• active transport

A root cell may continue to absorb minerals even though the concentration of the minerals is greater inside the cell than in the soil. How does the cell accomplish this absorption against the concentration gradient?

• through facilitated transport

• through diffusion

• through passive transport

• through active transport

Why does active transport require energy to move molecules of a substance across a cell membrane?

• The substance moves from high to low concentration, with the concentration gradient.

• The cell membrane is very thick.

• The substance moves from low to high concentration, against the concentration gradient.

• Lack of the substance makes the cell weak.

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

• Hypertonic

• Homeostasis

• Plasmolysis

• Hypotonic
