Cells and systems

1. a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one.
4. The systems in living things are built from
5. a membrane that only lets specific substances through
6. the loss of water from the plant through evaporation
8. a set of connected parts forming a more complex, coordinated whole.
10. elongated microscopic outgrowths from the outer layer of cells in a root, absorbing moisture and nutrients from the soil.
12. in the plant cell then transports substances using diffusion
13. plant vascular tissue that conveys water and dissolved minerals from the roots
15. a green pigment
16. controls what enters and leaves the nucleus
17. a group of cells that have similar structure and that function together as a unit.
20. have two lenses which increase magnification up to 2000x
22. all living things are composed of

1. organs work together to form
2. They act as storage spaces for wastes, surplus food and other substances that the cell does not need immediately.
3. the pressure that must be applied to the solution side to stop fluid movement when a semipermeable membrane separates a solution from pure water.
7. The cellular components are called
9. a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms
11. also known as a single-celled organism
14. This force helps in the upward movement of water into the xylem vessels.
18. organisms with many cells
19. movement of anything from higher concentration to lower concentration
21. Tissues group and work together to create
