Cells Part II Study Guide

List two types of passive transport.

• Simple diffusion

• Osmosis

• Bus

• Airplane

List two types of active transport.

• Endocytosis

• Exocytosis

• Train

• Taxi

Active transport requires the assistance of a type of protein called a carrier protein, using energy supplied by ATP​ (a)  

• True
• False

Passive transport goes from an area of ​ (a)   to (b)  

• High concentration to
• Low concentration.

What does photosynthesis produce? (a)  

• Glucose and Oxygen
• Endocytosis and Exocytosis

Describe photosynthesis.

• The process by which plants, some bacteria and some protistans use the energy from sunlight to produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water.

• The glucose is then converted into ATP through cellular respiration.

• Oxygen is also formed during photosynthesis.​

• The process by how the sun takes photographs.

Describe c​ellular respiration: Cellular respiration processes that take place in mitochondria. It converts glucose into adenosine triphosphate, and then releases waste products.

• True

• False

How would large particles enter a cell? It is possible for large molecules to enter a cell by a process called endocytosis, where a small piece of the cell membrane wraps around the particle and is brought into the cell. Protein channels may be used to bring larger molecules into the cell as well.

• True

• False

What is ATP?

• A form of energy AdenosineTri-Phosphate. It is MADE during cellular respiration in the mitochondria.

• A form of energy AdenosineTri-Phosphate. It is NOT MADE during cellular respiration in the mitochondria.

What is fermentation?

• The chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms. Creates ATP WITHOUT air.

• The chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms. Creates ATP WITH air.
