1. Cell Vocabulary Quiz – Part 2

2. Equilibrium

3. Answer When opposing forces are balanced out. Examples
Same amount of + and – charges
Same amount of sugar, salt or water inside and outside of a cell.
Answer

4. Semipermeable

5. answer Partially permeable
The cell membrane is semipermeable meaning that only certain things are let in and out of cells through their membrane. Only small and uncharged molecules can come through without a protein.
answer

6. Concentration gradient

7. The direction or net movement of particles based on moving from high concentration to low concentration.
Answer

8. Simple Diffusion

9. When small and nonpolar (Small and uncharged) molecules move through the cell membrane without the use of proteins.
Answer

10. Facilitated Diffusion

11. Large and polar (large and charged) molecules move through proteins to get into or out of a cell.
These always go with the concentration gradient meaning from high to low concentration.
answer

12. Osmosis

13. Facilitated diffusion of water through the aquaporin's (protein).
Answer

14. Active Transport

15. Answer Transport that uses energy (ATP)
Active transport goes against the concentration gradient (low to high concentration) that is why the cell requires energy to do it.
Answer

16. Homeostasis

17. The ability of the body to maintain a steady state despite changing conditions.
Example
Shiver vs . Sweat
Answer

18. Photosynthesis
