Cell Transport Flash Card

Front

Diffusion does not require the cell to expend ATP. Therefore, diffusion is considered a type of

Back

passive transport.

Front

Match the Osmosis models to the correct tonicity.

Back

Hypotonic, Isotonic, Hypertonic

Front

What happens when a dialysis bag containing 95% water and 5% starch is placed in Beaker C?

Back

Water moves out of the bag resulting in Bag Shrinking.

Front

The movement of oxygen from a high concentration in the blood across the cell membrane to the lower concentration in the cell is an example of which type of transport?

Back

diffusion

Front

Selective permeability

Back

The ability of the cell membrane to allow some things to pass through while preventing other things from passing through.

Front

A student observes red dye molecules moving from higher to lower concentration until equilibrium is reached. What type of cellular transport is this?

Back

The student is investigating the passive transport of diffusion.

Front

Effect of molecule concentration on movement into and out of a cell based on graph data.

Back

As the molecule concentration increases outside the cell, more molecules enter the cell.

Front

Why does an animal cell surrounded by fresh water burst?

Back

because osmosis causes water to move into the cell

Front

What is most likely to happen to onion skin cells placed in a freshwater solution on a microscope slide over time?

Back

The cells have swollen, expanding the cell walls.

Front

What type of transport is occurring in the image below?

Back

Exocytosis
