Diffusion |
The movement of particles from the regions of higher concentration to regions of lower concentration |
|
__________ requires no energy because it is a passive transport |
Diffusion |
|
Osmosis |
Diffusion of water through a semi-permeable membrane |
|
Passive Transport |
Movement of particles across the cell membrane without the use of energy |
|
Examples of Passive Transport |
Diffusion and Osmosis |
|
Active Transport |
Process of transporting materials (from low concentration to high concentration) that requires the cell to use energy |
|
Examples of Active Transport |
Endocytosis and Exocytosis |
|
Endocytosis |
Bring particles into the cell using energy |
|
Exocytosis |
When particles leave the cell using energy |
|
Photosynthesis |
The process to use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to make food |
|
Pigments |
Molecules that absorb light energy (sunlight), chlorophyll |
|
Glucose |
The food that is in the form of a simple sugar made by plants |
|
What is the Chemical equation for Photosynthesis? |
Sunlight + CO2+H2O = C6H12O8+O2 |
|
Cellular Respiration |
The use of oxygen to break down food |
|
Where does Cellular Respiration take place? |
The mitochondria |
|
What is the chemical equation for Cellular Respiration? |
C6H12O2 = ATP+ CO2+H2O |
|
What are two different kinds of fermentation? |
Lactic Acid Fermentation, and Carbon Dioxide Fermentation |
|
Lactic Acid Fermentation |
Produces lactic acid and energy (Examples: Exercising and muscle fatigue) |
|
Carbon Dioxide Fermentation |
Produces Carbon Dioxide and ethyl alcohol (Examples: Bread rising due to yeast) |
