The Cell

5. A solution whose concentration has a higher concentration of solute than the cytoplasm.
7. A mode of passive transport that cells use involving the movement of a solvent across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
8. The barrier around all cells which protects them from the outside world.
9. The process of making molecules by using absorbed molecules.
10. A protective layer that surrounds the cell membrane.
11. The area of a prokaryotic cell where DNA is found.
13. The theory that cells are the basic units of structure and function for all life.
15. The types of lipid which make up the cell membrane.
18. The property of a membrane to only allow certain substances to pass across it.
22. Cells in which there is neither a nucleus nor any membrane-bound organelles.
23. The state of being equal or even.
24. The process used to get substances (which are not soluble in the cell membrane) out of a cell using vesicles.
25. Deoxyribonucleic acid; DNA
26. Cells that contain a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.

1. The movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
2. Organisms that are composed of two or more cells.
3. Organisms that are composed of only one cell.
4. A mode of transport that does not require the cell to use any energy.
6. Molecules which dissolve in water; "water loving."
12. The ability of a cell to sense and respond to the environment.
14. Molecules which do not dissolve in water; "water fearing."
16. Units inside all cells that perform certain functions.
17. The "pinched off" part of a cell membrane containing a substance that has entered the cell.
19. One of several modes of transport that require the cell to expend energy in order to move molecules across the membrane.
20. The jelly-like fluid that fills the inside of a cell.
21. The process that uses vesicles to transport substances (which are not soluble in the cell membrane) into a cell.
