CELLULAR TRANSPORT REVIEW

Match the definition on the left with the term on the right.
1. _____ release of wastes or cell products from inside to outside a cell a. diffusion
2. _____ diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable b. equilibrium
membrane
c. exocytosis
3. _____ loss of water from a cell resulting in a drop in turgor pressure in
plants. Plasma membrane detaches from the cell wall d. osmosis
4. _____ continuous movement of particles but no overall change in e. plasmolysis
concentration
5. _____ movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to one
of lower concentration

In the space at the left, write true if the statement is true. If the statement is false, change the
italicized term to make the statement true. Write this answer in the blank provided.

6. A solution in which the concentration of dissolved substances is lower than the


concentration inside a cell is hypertonic.
____________ 7. The internal pressure of a plant cell is called turgor pressure.
____________ 8. In passive transport, the movement of particles across a membrane requires energy.
____________ 9. Endocytosis is a process by which a cell membrane surrounds and takes in material from
the environment.
____________ 10. The passive transport of material across a membrane by means of transport proteins is
called activated diffusion.
____________ 11. A membrane that allows only some materials to pass through shows selective
permeability.

Select the word or phrase that best completes the statement or answers the question.

1. The structure most responsible for maintaining cell homeostasis is the


cytoplasm cell wall mitochondria cell membrane

2. A cell membrane is made up of a(n)


cholesterol layer enzyme layer lipid bilayer protein layer

3. Which of the following is not a form of passive transport?


facilitated diffusion diffusion endocytosis osmosis

4. Diffusion continues until


equilibrium is reached turgor pressure is reached one side has more

5. If a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by


osmosis diffusion active transport phagocytosis

6. If it is not watered, a tulip plant wilts because it


increases active transport loses turgor pressure increases turgor pressure

7. A cell moves particles from a region of lesser concentration to a region of greater concentration by
facilitated diffusion osmosis passive transport active transport
