| A | B |
|---|
| homeostasis | maintaining of constant internal conditions |
| passive transport | no energy is required |
| diffusion | movement of particles from high concentration to a low concentration |
| solution | the solute dissolved in the solution |
| solvent | what the solute is being disolved in |
| solute | what is being disolved in the solvent |
| osmosis | diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane |
| selectivley permeable | permeable to some things; impermeable to others |
| hypertonic solution | higher in solute |
| hypotonic solution | lower in solutes |
| isotonic solution | when equilibrium has been reached |
| facilitated diffusion | most molecules move across the membrane with the help of channel proteins |
| channel proteins | this provides a larger opening or pore for an organic molecule to go through |
| active transport | energy is required |
| protein pumps | this moves molecules from low to high concentration |
| endocytosis | move very large objects into the cell |
| phagocytosis | taking in of very large solids |
| pinocytosis | taking in of very large liquids |
| exocytosis | very large objects leaving the cell |
