A

is non- polar and thus water insoluble (hydrophobic)

Q

particle model of matter

A
  1. all matter made up of particles
  2. particles in matter are constantly moving (adding or taking away energy will affect movement of particles
  3. particles of matter are attracted to each other or bonded
  4. Particles have spaces between them that are smallest in solids and largest in gases (excluding ice)

15
Q

isotonic

A

solution has the same concentration as another solution

16
Q

hypertonic

A

solution has a higher concentration of solute as another solution

17
Q

solute will always

A

diffuse from hypertonic to hypotonic

18
Q

osmosis

A

diffusion of water across a cell membrane

19
Q

when does osmosis occur?

A

when a solute cannot pass through a cell membrane, but the water can through high concentration to low concentration

20
Q

water in osmosis always moves from

A

hypotonic to hypertonic

21
Q

types of transport

A

active and passive

22
Q

example of diffusion

A

small non-polar molecules like oxygen moving from a concentration gradient

23
what goes on during facilitated diffusion??
substances move through proteins that help larger molecules move to cross the membrane. still like normal diffusion they just get extra help
24
active transport
substances move from area of lower concentration outside of the cell to area of higher concentration
25
energy in active transport comes from a substance called??
ATP
26
endocytosis
vesicles (hehe) formed around a particle taking particle into cell
27
exocytosis
vesicles pushed to the cell membrane, rupturing vesicle and releasing contents to the outside
