| diffusion | movement of particles from high to low concentration |
| osmosis | movement of water through a memebrane |
| passive transport | the movement of particles across the cell membrane without energy |
| active transport | movement of particles across a cell membrane with energy |
| endocytosis | a form of active transport; cell membrane encloses particle in a vesicle and brings it into the cell |
| exocytosis | active transport; large particle located within a vesicle fuses with the cell membrane and is released |
| photosynthesis | process in which plants, algae, and some bacteria use sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to produce energy (glucose) and oxygen |
| cellular respiration | cells use glucose (food) and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, energy and water |
| fermentation | breakdown of food without the use of oxygen |
| cell cycle | life cycle of the cell |
| homologous chromosomes | have the same sequence and structure of genes |
| mitosis | eukaryotic cell; the process of cell division that forms two new cells that have the same number of chromosomes |
