• make light

• release carbon dioxide

I need energy!  I am going to eat a good lunch.  Then, the food molecules will get broken down and absorbed into the cells.  Then in the mitochondria, the glucose (food) meets with oxygen and this process happens!

• Fermentation

• Cellular Respiration

• Photosynthesis

• Glycolysis

The cell is in danger!!  It needs some special minerals to survive.  Unfortunately, the minerals are too big to just go through the cell membrane.  They will need energy and a special process to bring them INTO the cell!  Whatever shall they do???

• Active Transport

• Endocytosis

• Exocytosis

• Fermentation

Uh oh, someone heated fish in the microwave.  At first, I couldn't smell it all the way across the room. But now, the molecules have spread out evenly throughout the room and EVERYONE smells it!!

• passive transport

• diffusion

• osmosis

• facilitated diffusion

The sprinkler system in my yard broke and all of the plants started to wilt (fall over).  I guess their vacuoles are empty- no water!  No worries, as soon as I fix the system, the vacuoles will fill up with water because of this process!

• Passive Transport

• Diffusion

• Osmosis

• Facilitated Diffusion

Ok, no more fun stories.  Here's a definition:
the movement of molecules across the cell membrane from LOW to HIGH concentration.  But wait there's more!!!!!  It needs energy to do this!!

• Passive Transport

• Diffusion

• Osmosis

• Active Transport

That crazy cell membrane!  It has these weird spots called "special" proteins.  They are great places for large molecules to get in and out of the cell WITHOUT using the cell's energy.

• Passive Transport

• Diffusion

• Osmosis

• Facilitated Diffusion

Which process has the purpose of creating food/glucose?
