Cell Processes
Question | Answer |
---|---|
They are organelles that breaks them down glucose and creates energy for the cell. The process of creating cell energy is known as cellular respiration. | mitochondrion |
transports the products and is sometimes the site for the breaking down of metabolic wastes; bulge out and break off from the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus; get their energy for mobility from ATP; examples are lysosomes and peroxisomes | vesicles |
process when a cell's vesicles release their contents outside the cell. | exocytosis |
The process when a cell takes in a substance by surrounding it with the cell membrane. | endocytosis |
This structure offers protection from the outside environment. | cell membrane |
Substances are moved through the cell membrane without using the cell's energy. | Passive transport |
This substance is released as a waste product during photosynthesis. | oxygen |
The equation below is an example of : glucose is the broken down into ATP, carbon dioxide, and alcohol. | Alcohol fermentation |
The passive transport of water through a membrane without the use of energy. | osmosis |
Substances too large to pass through the cell membrane enter the cell in a process | endocytosis |
The products of photosynthesis | oxygen and glucose |
chemical reactions that convert the energy in glucose into a usable form of energy called ATP | cellular respiration |
This process is the opposite process of photosynthesis | cellular respiration |
Glucose is broken down and ___________ is released during respiration. | ATP |
When water moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration | osmosis |
A cell with 10 water molecules on the inside and 10 molecules on the outside of the cell. Water molecules move in and out the cell is an example of ______________________. | equilibrium |
when molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of a lower concentration. | diffusion |
A cell with high levels of nutrients allow molecules to leave the cell to join low levels of protein outside the cell is | exocytosis |
The example of diffusion that involves water | osmosis |
The example of passive transport that uses carrier and channel proteins | facilitated diffusion |
The second stage of cellular respiration (aerobic respiration) requires this | oxygen |
This best describes the movement of water in osmosis. | Water moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. |
When a substance is too large to pass through the cell membrane, the substance enters using ___________. | endocytosis |
When a substance is too large to pass through the cell membrane, the substance exits using ___________. | exocytosis |
What substances is broken down during glycolsis? | glucose |
Where does photosynthesis take place? | Chloroplast |
Cellular respiration takes place in these areas. | cytoplasm and mitochondrion |
Substances are moved through the cell membrane using the cell's energy. | active passport |
