| cell membrane | The membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell |
| selectively permeable | Allowing only certain molecules to pass through. |
| passive transport | Passage of substances across a membrane without the use of cellular energy. |
| diffusion | The movement of molecules from an area of higher concentationt an area of lower concentration |
| osmosis | Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. |
| active transport | The passage of particles through a membrane, requiring the use of cellular energy. |
| cell wall | A rigid structure manufactured by certain organisms and secreted to the exterior of the cell membrane. |
| organelle | organ like structures within the cell which perform certain functions. |
| mitochondria | Cellular organelles in which aerobic respiration occurs to release usable energy form food. |
| endoplasmic reticulum | A cellular organelle consisting of a network of membranes enabling substances to be transported throughout the cell. |
