active transportThe movement of a substance through a biological membrane against a concentration gradient
alveoliair sacs in the lung
amino groupamino group
bladderbladder
brochiol treeis the intricate network of air passages that supply the lungs
cellular respirationcellular respiration
cholesterolcholesterol
concentration gradientA difference in the concentration of the substance over a distance
cytoplasmcytoplasm
cytosolcytosol
deaminationdeamination
diffusionThe movement of a substance down its concentration gradient from a more concentrated area to a less concentrated area
equilibriuma state of equilibrium
exocytosisThe process of moving macromolecules out of a using the fusion of vesicles with plasma membrane
endocytosisProcess of moving material into a cell using a vesicle
facilitated diffusionmoves material from high to low concentration using carrier or transport proteins
glycolipida lipid covalently linked to a sugar of polysaccharide
glycoproteina protein linked to a sugar or polysaccharide
hydrophobicdoesn’t like water
hydrophiliclikes water
hypertonicSolution with the more dissolved substances than a cell causing the cell to shrink as it loses water
hypotonicSolution with the less dissolved substances than a cell, causes cell to swell as it gains water
isotonicSolution with the same amount of dissolved substances as a cell
kidneykidney
liverliver
nitrogenous wastenitrogenous waste
osmosisThe diffusion of water through a semi permeable membrane from a lower concentration of solutes to a higher concentration of solutes
passive transportMovement of materials across a cell membrane without using energy. The movement is with the concentration gradient (from high to low).
phagocytosisphagocytosis
phospholipids bilayerphospholipids bilayer
pinocytosispinocytosis
soluteThe solid that gets dissolved in a solution.
solventA substance that dissolves other substances, thus forming a solution
tracheaA tube that carries air to the lungs
turgor pressurea cells swelling against its cell wall caused by the pressure of the cell’s contents
uretera muscular tube that carries urine from the kidney to the urinary bladder
urethrathe tube from which urine travels from the bladder to outside the body
