Molecules go from high to low; no energy used (molecules do all the work) Diffusion, Osmosis, and Facilitated Diffusion are all part of this transport Spreading of molecules or substances from an area of high concentration to low concentration usually gases
Homeostasis
Just right condition-balanced
Exocytosis
Forms a vesicle to dispose of wastes from the cell.
Selective permeability
The cell membrane only lets certain things can go in or out; process by which it is selective
Osmosis
Diffusion of water; the movement of water molecules from an area of high concentration to a low concentration
Facilitated diffusion
Carrier proteins force molecules out to get others into the cell like glucose
Hypertonic
This process makes cells lose water when placed in this type of environment; it shrivels or shrinks
Sodium potassium pump
Carrier proteins/Protein channels that help molecules move sodium and potassium ions in or out of the cell
Active transport
Requires energy to move molecules from low to high against their concentration gradient Sodium Potassium Pump, Endocytosis, and Exocytosis are all part of this transport
Endocytosis
Forms a vesicle to take large substances into the cell because the molecule is too big
Hypotonic
This process will make cells gain water; and possibly the cell will burst or lyse itself.
Isotonic
Cell stays the same size; normal. Achieves Homeostasis
Turgor pressure
Inside pressure that keeps plant parts from wilting. Large vacuole fills with water.
