Across
- 3. A property of cell membrane that allows some molecules or ions to pass through while blocking others. This helps maintain a balance of substances inside and outside the cell
- 9. he process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a biological membrane
- 11. the process by which cells take in substances from outside of the cell by engulfing them in a vesicle
- 12. exists when there is a region of high concentration leading to a region of low concentration
- 13. a protein embedded in the cell membrane that actively transports sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell, using energy from ATP,
- 14. osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a solution with a high concentration of water molecules to a solution with a lower concentration of water molecules
Down
- 1. A double-layered arrangement of phospholips that makes up the cell membrane
- 2. a type of facilitated diffusion where molecules are moved across the membrane through a protein, without using energy.
- 4. the natural movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration due to random molecular motion
- 5. transport The movement of substances across the membrane without the use of energy it typically occurs along a concentration gradient, from high to low concentration
- 6. The process by which an organism or cell maintains a stable internal environment, despite external changes, to ensure optimal conditions for functioning
- 7. Transport The movement of a substance across the cell membrane against their concentration gradien, requiring energy
- 8. The ability to work or cause change In biological systems, energy is often stored in chemical bonds and is required for processes like, Transport, growth, and reproduction
- 9. Mosaic Model A model that describes the structure of the cell membrane, where the membrane is flexible and composed of the various molecules, such as proteins and lipids, arranged in mosaic pattern
- 10. a form of bulk transport during which large numbers of molecules are transported out of the cell
