Cell Processes Study Guide

  1. When particles are moved through a membrane from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration, the process is called ______ACTIVE TRANSPORT______.

2. What are the products/producedof photosynthesis? GLUCOSE and OXYGEN (waste)

3. Osmosis is the diffusion of _____WATER______through a cell membrane?

4. How would sugar entering a cell that already contains a high concentration of sugar get thorough a cell membrane and into the cell?ACTIVE TRANSPORT

5. When a cell membrane surrounds a particle, encloses it in a vesicle, and brings the particle into the cell, this is called _____ENDOCYTOSIS______.

6. When vesicles are formed at the endoplasmic reticulum of Golgi complex and they carry large particles to the cell membrane to exit the cell, this is called ___EXOCYTOSIS______.

7. Most all of the energy that fuels life comes from the _SUN______.

8. The equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy ------› C6H1206 + 6O2 is the equation for _PHOTOSYNTHESIS______?

9. The equation: C6H12O6 + 6O2 ------›6CO2 + 6H2O + energy (ATP) is the equation for____CELLULAR RESPIRATION______?

10. Cellular respiration takes place in a cell’s __MITOCHONDRIA______.

11. The process of photosynthesis takes place in the _CHLOROPLASTS______of the plant cell.

Vocabulary Words: Match the following words up to their definitions. Write the word in the space provided.

passive transport is the movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without usingcellular energy.

active transport is the movement of materials through a cell membrane using cellular energy.

Cells have selectively permeablemembranes so some substances can pass through the membrane while others can’t.

endocytosis is the process in which a cell membrane surrounds a particle and encloses it in avesicle to bring it into the cell.

exocytosis is the process used to remove large particles from a cell.

Diffusion is the natural processes by which molecules move from an area of higher

concentration to an area of low concentration.

Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane
