Across
- 3. limp,lacking turgor
- 5. A property of biological membranes that allows them to regulate the passage of substances across them.
- 7. transmembrane protein with hydrophobic regions that extend into and often completely span the hydrophobic interior of the membrane
- 10. active transport protein in a cell membrane that uses ATP to transport hydrogen ions out of a cell against their concentration gradient
- 11. Referring to a solution that, when surrounding a cell, causes no net movement of water into or out of the cell.
- 12. A channel protein in a cellular membrane that specifically facilitates osmosis, the diffusion of free water across the membrane.
- 13. transmembrane protein channel that opens or closes in response to a particular stimulus.
- 14. random thermal motion of particles of liquids, gases, or solids
Down
- 1. A transmembrane protein channel that allows a specific ion to diffuse across the membrane down its concentration or electrochemical gradient.
- 2. model of cell membrane structure,
- 4. Referring to a solution that, when surrounding a cell, will cause the cell to lose water.
- 6. Swollen or distended, as in plant cells
- 8. Regulation of solute concentrations and water balance by a cell or organism.
- 9. The ability of a solution surrounding a cell to cause that cell to gain or lose water.
