Transportation of Molecules

Question 1

Passive Transport

Answer 1

the movement of molecules across the cell membrane from high to low concentration without using energy

Question 2

Diffusion

Answer 2

The movement of molecules from a high to low concentration unitil equilibruim is reached. No energy is requied

Question 3

Diffusion Across Cell Membrane

Answer 3

Small uncharged particles like carbon dioxide and oxygen moves easily through the cell membrane by simple diffusion

Question 4

Facilitated Diffusion

Answer 4

Facilitated diffusion is the process of diffusion with the help of certain proteins known as carrier and channel proteins. This helps large molecules and pass the phospholipid bilayer.

Question 5

Osmosis

Answer 5

Osmosis is the process of water moves from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration.

Question 6

Hypotonic

Answer 6

Greater concentration of solute inside the cell.

Question 7

Hypertonic

Answer 7

Greater concentration of solute outside the cell

Question 8

Isotonic

Answer 8

Concentration inside cell is equal to that of the solution

Question 9

Active Transport

Answer 9

Active transport moves molecules from low to high concentration using energy.

Question 10

Endocytosis

Answer 10

Moves large molecules into the cell using energy. The cell membrane englufs particles, bring them inside

Question 11

Phagocytosis

Answer 11

Engulfs solids (cell eating)

Question 12

Pinocytosis

Answer 12

Englufs fluids (cell drinking)

Question 13

Exocytosis

Answer 13

Animal and plants cells produce antibodies and enzymes to use elsewhere. Exocytosis transports these by fusing a vesicle with the cell membrane to realease its content
