Correct Answers
Heat capacity - ✔✔✔ANSWER-the number of heat units needed to raise the
temperature of a body by one degree.
Malleability - ✔✔✔ANSWER-the ability of a substance to be hammered or
beaten into thin sheets
What is a physical property? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-a characteristic that can be
observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance
What is cellular transport? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-the movement of molecules
in/out of cells to keep cells alive and maintain homeostasis
Cellular transport is split into two categories - ✔✔✔ANSWER-a. Active
transport
b. Passive transport
, What is active transport? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-the movement of ions or
molecules across a cell membrane into a region of higher concentration, assisted
by enzymes and requiring energy. ACTIVE=ENERGY
What is passive transport? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-The movement of materials
across the cell membrane without using cellular energy. PASSIVE=NO ENERGY
What is diffusion? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-The movement of particles from an area
of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
What is an example of Diffusion? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-For example, when you
add a drop of food coloring to water, immediately, the food coloring begins to
spread (or diffuse) throughout the water, eventually reaching equilibrium where
all areas have the same concentration of coloring:
What is a concentration gradient? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-difference in the
concentration of a substance from one location to another
What is Kinetic Energy? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-the energy an object has due to its
motion.
An example of kinetic energy is - ✔✔✔ANSWER-running water
