Created by Mary Buttiglieri for Middle School Life Science Students will test their knowlege of diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion, active transport, endocytosis, excytosis
A
B
diffusion
movement of molecules from high to low concentration until equilibrium is reached
equilibrium
dynamic state where the concentrations on eother side of a cell membrane are equal, What moves in = what moves out
osmosis
diffusion of water
plasmolysis
cell deflates due to loss of turgor pressure
cytolysis
cell bursts due to increase in turgor pressure
turgor pressure
keeps cell inflated
facilitated diffusion
moves material from high to low concentration using carrier or transport proteins
active transport
mplecules move from low to high concentration using carrier proteins and ATP's energy
endocytosis/exocytosis
Used for molecules too large to enter or exit cell xit cell cell
