d. passive transport h. channel protein
________ Transport protein that provides a tunnel-like opening in the plasma membrane through which particles can diffuse
________ Is used during active transport but not passive transport
________ Process by which a cell takes in material by forming a vesicle/vacuole around it
________ Particle movement from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
________ Process by which a cell expels wastes from a vesicle/vacuole
________ A form of passive transport that uses transport proteins
________ Particle movement from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration
________ Transport protein that changes shape when a particle binds with
Label the diagrams of cells using the following terms: diffusion, active transport, osmosis, equilibrium. The arrows show the direction of transport. You may use the terms more than once!
Osmosis Practice Activity
Osmosis is the diffusion of water from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Only water moves in osmosis! The diagrams below show the concentration of water and salt inside the cell and the concentration of water and salt surrounding the cell. Complete the sentences below by comparing the concentration of the water inside the cell and the concentration outside the cell.
1 | a. Water will flow _____________________ (into the cell, out of the cell, in both directions). | |
b. The cell will ______________________ (shrink, burst, stay the same). | ||
2 | a. Water will flow _____________________ (into the cell, out of the cell, in both directions). | |
b. The cell will ______________________ (shrink, burst, stay the same). | ||
3 | a. Water will flow _____________________ (into the cell, out of the cell, in both directions). | |
b. The cell will ______________________ (shrink, burst, stay the same). |
4. At which solution of concentration gradient is each cell diagram? (Hypotonic, Hypertonic, Isotonic)
5. What does this diagram show? ___________________
6. Using a transport protein to move particles from high to low concentration: ___________________
7. Describe the processes occurring in the following pictures:
