QUESTIONS LIST: turgid : when plant cells are swollen with water, crenated : when animal cells have collapsed due to water loss, exocytosis : release of cellular substances as secretions from cells in membrane vesicles, osmosis : the movement of water molecules from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration across a semi-permeable membrane, cell membrane : the thin skin surrounding the cytoplasm of every cells, plasmolysed : when plant cells have lost water due to osmosis, active transport : energy from cells is needed to move particles against a concentration gradient across its membrane, passive transport : no energy is required by the cell to move molecules across its membrane, hypotonic : the solution has a lower solute concentration than the cell, phospholipid : lipids found in all living cells and in the bilayers of cell membranes, phagocytosis : cell eating, endocytosis : incorporation of substances into a cell by phagocytosis or pinocytosis, osmotic pressure : a force driven by differences in solute concentrations that causes the net movement of water out of or into a cell, pinocytosis : cell drinking, water : this substance is free to move across the cell membrane unrestricted, diffusion : the passive movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration down a concentration gradient, diffusion : the passive movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration, down a concentration gradient or slope, over short distances, semipermeable : the cell membrane controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell allowing smaller molecules through, but stopping larger ones, isotonic : the concentration of solutes is the same inside and outside the cell, aquaporins : cells that contain water channel proteins that allow water to pass right through them.
