Aria is learning about cell biology and wonders how active transport is different from passive transport. She discovers that active transport involves:
the movement of molecules from high concentration to low concentration
an expenditure of energy
the use of ribosomes
a process which occurs only in the cells of simple plants and animals
Daniel is observing how sugar dissolves in water. He notices that the sugar molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration without any energy input. This method of transport is called...
passive transport
osmosis
active transport
pump
Aria is observing the movement of WATER across a cell membrane in her biology class. She notices that it moves through the use of aquaporins. This process is described as _______.

Isla is trying to move large boxes into a storage room, but she needs a special cart to help her move them without using too much effort. What type of transport is this similar to in cells, where special proteins assist molecules like glucose to enter without using energy?
Facilitated Diffusion
Osmosis
Active Transport
Diffusion
Charlotte is learning about how calcium acts as a signalling molecule. When it rushes into a muscle cell through a calcium channel, it can signal to a muscle to contract. The cell has to pump out the calcium using ___________ transport to maintain a “steep” concentration gradient, to release the muscle contraction and relax.
diffusion
active transport
osmosis
facilitated diffusion
Ava noticed that when she sprays perfume in one corner of the room, the scent gradually spreads throughout the entire room without any help. This movement of the perfume molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration is an example of what type of transport?
Diffusion
Active Transport
Endocytosis
Facilitated Diffusion
Michael observed the movement of sugar molecules from a high concentration area in his tea to a low concentration area, making the tea sweet evenly.
Passive Transport
Active Transport

Kai is learning about the cell membrane in his biology class. Which statement best describes the cell membrane?
The protective outer layer that controls what enters and leaves the cell.
Stores information on DNA molecules / Directs and controls the activities of the cell.
A folded membrane that moves materials around inside cells / Also acts as the site of manufacturing materials needed by the cell.
The smallest organelle with a huge job / Makes proteins, which are the building blocks of the body.
Mia is conducting an experiment with a membrane that allows certain substances to pass through while blocking others. What is another term for "selectively permeable"?
porous
completely permeable
permanent
semipermeable
Priya is studying the cell membrane in her biology class. She learns that _______ is important in the cell membrane. It helps the membrane to be “fluid” meaning the molecules within it can move around within the membrane. It keeps cold membranes from becoming too solid and hot membranes from becoming too fluid.
