solution with lower solute concentration on outside of cell and higher solute concentration on inside of cell. Water will into the cell causing the cell to swell and eventually burst

a solution that has the SAME solute concentration on the outside and inside of the cell. There will be NO NET MOVEMENT of water into or out of the cell. Cell size will stay the SAME.

the movement of molecules LIKE OXYGEN OR HYDROGEN from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration.

molecules LIKE GLUCOSE AND SALT diffuse across the cell membrane with help from membrane PROTEINS, such as channel and carrier proteins.

type of membrane transport that does NOT require energy to move substances across cell membranes. This includes diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion.

a kind of cellular transport where substances move against a concentration gradient. This type of transport REQUIRES ENERGY from the cell. This includes endocytosis and exocytosis.

process that occurs when a cell moves large materials OUTSIDE of the cell through secretory vesicles. This type of transport is active and requires energy.

a process by which cells absorb or take in external materials by engulfing it (taking in) with the cell membrane. Examples of this is pinocytosis and phagocytosis.

a process by which the cell takes in the fluids along with dissolved small molecules. Pre-fix means to drink.

process by which a phagocyte (a type of white blood cell) surrounds and destroys foreign substances (such as bacteria) and removes dead cells.

the MOVEMENT OF WATER molecules from a solution with a high concentration of water molecules to a solution with a lower concentration of water molecules

a type of transport protein, acts like a pore in the membrane that lets water molecules or small ions through quickly

a two-layered arrangement of phosphate and lipid molecules that form a cell membrane.

the cell membranes' ability to differentiate between different types of molecules, only allowing some molecules through while blocking others.
