17
Q

Osmosis

A

Movement of water across a membrane from high to low concentration

18
Q

Diffusion

A

Movement of particles across a membrane from high to low concentration

19
Q

Facilitated diffusion

A

Diffusion that requires transport proteins (ex. Glucose & other polar molecules)

20
Q

Active transport

A

Movement across a membrane from low to high concentration; requires ATP

21
Q

process of exporting bulky material such as proteins or polysaccharides

22
Q

transport process in which a cell takes in large molecules

23
Q

Cellular eating

24
cellular drinking
pinocytosis
25
highly selective process in which receptor proteins for specific molecules are embedded in regions of the membrane that are lined by a layer of coat proteins
receptor-mediated endocytosis
26
tonicity
the ability of a surrounding solution to cause a cell to gain or lose water
27
isotonic
solute concentration of a cell and its environment are equal
28
hypotonic solution
a solution with a solute concentration lower than that of the cell; cell gains water & lyses (burst)
29
Hypertonic solution
a solution with a higher solute concentration; cell shrivels and can die from water loss
30
osmoregulation
control of water balance
31
Glucose is _______ during cellular respiration
oxidized
32
Oxygen is __________ during cellular respiration
reduced

39
Input of oxidative phosphorylation
ADP, NADH, FADH2, O2
40
