Across
- 2. cell death by external process like injury or inflammation, etc
- 3. cell destroys itself or its contents with the help of lysosomes
- 6. where the effect enhances the cause, often may be detrimental
- 11. movement of solvent molecules down the gradient across a semipermeable membrane
- 13. Maintenance of constant internal environment
- 14. most commonly occurring mechanism in biological systems to maintain stability or constancy
- 15. ungated channels which allow movement of molecules or ions as long as favourable gradient exists
- 18. substance used to measure extracellular fluid volume
- 19. coined the term "milieu interieur" to denote the internal environment
- 21. fluid that fills specialized spaces such as meninges, pleural space and joint spaces
Down
- 1. dye used to measure plasma volume
- 2. controls cell volume, and is responsible for nearly 2/3 of resting energy consumption
- 4. Macromolecules are captured in vesicles on one side of the cell, drawn across the cell, and ejected on the other side
- 5. movement of substances without expenditure of energy
- 7. fluid that fills spaces in between the cells
- 8. gave name to the process of maintaining stable internal environment
- 9. cell death by a tightly regulated cell's own genetic program
- 10. channels which open and close in response to changes in electrical potential
- 12. this transport uses ATP to move substances against the gradient
- 16. this transport uses energy from the gradient of one substance to move another substance
- 17. channels which open in response to binding of chemical molecules
- 20. triskelion shaped protein plays a key role in formation of coated vesicles
