19
Q

Movement of fluid across a membrane as a result of pressure

20
Q

Uses ATP to move molecules against concentration gradient

A

Active transport

21
Q

a process by which cells absorb external material by engulfing it with the cell membrane.

22
Q

Three types of endocytosis

A

Phagocytosis
Pinocytosis
Receptor-mediated endocytosis

23
Q

Nonspecific uptake of solid material

24
Q

Nonspecific uptake of small droplets of ECF

25
Involves a specific receptor protein on the plasma membrane that recognizes the extracellular molecule and binds with it
Receptor-mediated endocytosis
26
Involves the regular secretion of molecules and is performed by all cells
Constitutive exocytosis
27
Relies on the presence of extracellular signals for the expulsion of materials within vesicles and occurs commonly in secretory cells
Regulated exocytosis
28
a form of bulk transport during which large numbers of molecules are transported out of the cell
Exocytosis
29
Packaging, sorting, and export
Golgi apparatus
30
Storage sacs
Vacuoles and vesicles
31
Fluid suspending all organelles and dissolved molecules
Cytosol
32
Contain hydrolases that digest organic molecules under acidic conditions
Lysosomes
33
Directs chemical reactions in cell by transcribing genetic information and is continuous with the ER
Nucleus
34
Protein workbenches
Ribosomes
35
an intercellular structure made of both RNA and protein, and it is the site of protein synthesis
Ribosomes
36
A microbody that contains catalase, which breaks down H2O2 into water and oxygen
Peroxisome
37
Chromosome movement during cell division
Microtubule
38
