Turn in Completed for 5pts added to your test
Match the definition on the left with the term on the right.
- _____ release of wastes or cell products from inside to outside a cell
- _____ diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable
membrane
- _____ loss of water from a cell resulting in a drop in turgor pressure in
plants. Plasma membrane detaches from the cell wall
- _____ continuous movement of particles but no overall change in
concentration
- _____ 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.
______7. A solution in which the concentration of dissolved substances is lower than the
concentration inside a cell is hypertonic.
______8. The internal pressure of a plant cell is called turgor pressure.
______9. In passive transport, the movement of particles across a membrane requiresenergy.
______10. Endocytosis is a process by which a cell membrane surrounds and takes inmaterial from
the environment.
______11. The passive transport of material across a membrane by means of transportproteins is
called activated diffusion.
______12. A membrane that allows only some materials to pass through shows
selectivepermeability.
Hi-lite the word or phrase that best completes the statement or answers the question.

- Diffusion continues until
equilibrium is reachedturgor pressure is reachedone side has more
- If a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by

- If it is not watered, a tulip plant wilts because it
increases active transportloses turgor pressureincreases turgor pressure
