Cell Transport & Cell Energy Review--Unit 2

Front

What happens to an animal cell in a hypotonic solution?

Back

It will gain water and swell.

Front

What is the process of converting carbon dioxide into sugars called?

Back

Photosynthesis.

Front

What is the movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane called?

Back

Osmosis.

Front

True or False: The Calvin Cycle returns ADP and NADP to the light dependent phase.

Back

True.

Front

What happens to an egg with a dissolved shell placed in pure water for 48 hours?

Back

The egg will gain water and swell.

Front

Define osmosis.

Back

The movement of water molecules from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.

Front

What is active transport?

Back

The movement of molecules across a cell membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration, requiring energy.

Front

What is the Calvin Cycle?

Back

A series of biochemical reactions in photosynthesis that convert carbon dioxide into glucose.

Front

What is diffusion?

Back

The process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration.

Front

What role do chloroplasts play in photosynthesis?

Back

Chloroplasts are the organelles where photosynthesis occurs, converting light energy into chemical energy.
