Unit 3 bio vocabulary
Across
- 3. process by which solids are ingested by living cells; it is another type of endocytosis
- 4. process of diffusion in which molecules pass across the membrane through cell membrane channels
- 6. when comparing two solutions, the solution with the greater concentration of solutes
- 8. thin, flexible barrier that surrounds all cells; regulates what enters and leaves the cell
- 9. a microscope with high magnification that uses electron beams in place of light
- 10. cellular transport where substances move against a concentration gradient. (requires energy)
- 13. group of tissues that work together
- 17. organism whose cells contain a nucleus
- 19. the process by which cells move materials out of the cell
- 20. cell organelle that stores materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates
- 21. groups of cells that work together (same job)
- 22. unicellular organism that lacks a nucleus
- 23. network of protein filaments in a eukaryotic cell that gives the cell its shape and internal organization and is involved in movement
- 25. the process by which cells move materials from within the cell into the extracellular fluid
- 26. microscope that uses multiple lenses and light to enlarge the image of a sample
- 27. cells can develop in different ways to have different features to help them carry out a special task to help the organism function
Down
- 1. cell organelle that breaks down lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins into small molecules that can used by the rest of the cell
- 2. process by which particles tend to move from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated
- 5. property of biological membranes that allows some substances to pass across it while others cannot; also called semi permeable membrane
- 7. when comparing two solutions, the solution with the lesser concentration of solutes
- 8. fluid portion of the cell outside the nucleus
- 11. groups of organs and tissues that work together
- 12. diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
- 14. tiny sacs that transport material within or outside the cell
- 15. basic unit of life
- 16. a process by which liquid droplets are ingested by living cells; it is one type of endocytosis
- 18. when the concentration of two solutions is the same
- 24. strong, supporting layer around the cell membrane in some cells
