Diffusion - -The passive movement of particles from an area of high concentration to low concentration. This happens along a concentration gradient Osmosis - -A passive movement of water molecules through a semi permeable membrane. Water moves from an area of low solute concentration to high solute concentration Active Transport - -An active movement where an input of energy is required. Particles move from low concentration to high concentration Facilitated Diffusion - -A passive movement of particles from high to low concentration thr

Exocytosis - -Movement out of a cell

Osmosis - -A passive movement of
water molecules through a semi permeable Endocytosis - -Movement into a cell
membrane. Water moves from an area of low
solute concentration to high solute

destructive/digestive chemicals

Active Transport - -An active
movement where an input of energy is Pinocytosis - -A form of endocytosis

Phagocytosis - -A form of endocytosis
Facilitated Diffusion - -A passive where a cell engulfs solids into a cell
movement of particles from high to low
concentration through a protein channel in a
cell. Scientific question - -Questions that
can be answered by using experiments and
factual reasoning.
Isotonic Solution - -The same
concentration of dissolved substances.
Water in = water out. Biology - -The study of living organisms
and how they function.

Hypertonic Solution - -Higher

science since the 17th century, consisting in
systematic observation, measurement, and
Plasmolyse - -When a cell has shrunk experiment, and the formulation, testing, and
modification of hypotheses.

Hypotonic Solution - -A cell has more
solute inside than outside. Hypothesis - -1st part of the scientific
