Describe the events of an isotonic solution. > when a cell in a solution has the same concentration of water and solutes as its cytoplasm > cell is at equilibrium with the solution, so there is no movement of water > example: blood
An isotonic solution occurs when there is an equal amount of solute on the inside and outside of the cell, so water moves both in and out, because there is already an equilibrium. An isotonic solution is a solution that causes water to move inside and outside of the cell at the same time, and isotonic solution=same concentration. All cells strive to have a isotonic solution.
Process by which a cell takes material into the cell by infolding of the cell membrane; the pocket breaks loose from the outer portion of membrane and forms vacuole within the cytoplasm
Endocytosis
Process by which a cell releases large amounts of material from cell, the membrane of the vacuole surrounding the material fuses with the cell membrane
Exocytosis
Describe the events of a hypertonic solution thoroughly. - concentration of solute outside the cell is higher than inside > water moves out of cell by osmosis > cells shrivel up
If there is more solute on the outside of the cell, than on the inside of the cell, water moves outside of the cell. This is because water moves from a high to low concentration gradient. This causes the cell to shrink, because it is losing water. Water wants to move toward the solute because solute is what is being dissolved. This is called a hypertonic solution(highly concentrated with solute)
If water move in and out of a cell at the same rate, what will happen to the cell?
If water moves in and out of the cell at the same rate, then the cell size will remain the same.
If water moves into a cell, what will happen to the cell?
If water moves into a cell, the cells will swell and ultimately burst. Hypotonic
If water moves out of a cell, what will happen to the cell?
If water moves out of the cell, the cell will shrink
Describe the events of a hypotonic solution thoroughly. > cell in a solute with a lower concentration of solute there is more water outside the cell than inside. > more water outside the cell than inside > water flows into cell by osmosis
In a hypotonic solution, the water from the outside of the cell moves into the cell. This happens because there is more solute inside the cell, and the water from the outside moves in, because it moves from a high to low concentration gradient.
When a substance does not require energy to move, what causes its movement?
Its move is caused by a concentration gradient. The substance moves from a high to low concentration, in order to reach equilibrium(the condition in which a substance is equal.)
What is the between diffusion and osmosis?
Osmosis the molecules that move are water molecules, in Diffusion the molecules moving are solute molecules
Process in which extensions of cytoplasm surround and engulf large particles and take the, into the cell (cell eating)
Phagocytois
Process by which a cell takes in liquid from the surrounding environment
Pinocytosis
What are characteristics of unicellular organism?
The main groups of unicellular organisms are bacteria, archaea, protozoa, unicellular algae, and unicellular fungi. Unicellular organisms fall into two general categories: prokaryotic organisms and eukaryotic organisms.
What type of solution will cause the cell staying the same size to happen? Isotonic (solutions are the same strength)
The type of solution that causes this to happen is an isotonic solution. In isotonic solution is when there is no net movement of the water because equilibrium is already reached. An isotonic solution can be defined as a solution that causes water to move and out of the cell at the same time. Isotonic=same concentration.
What type of solution will cause cell shrinking to happen? Describe Hypertonic (the solution is above strength in solute)
The type of solution that will cause this to happen is a hypertonic solution. If the environment surrounding the cell has a greater amount of solute than the cell itself, than the water inside the cell will move out of the cell. This is because water moves from a high to low concentration. Hypertonic solution means highly concentrate with solute.
What type of solution will cause cell swelling to happen? Hypotonic (the solution is below strength in solute)
The type of solution that will cause this to happen is a hypotonic solution. If there is more solute inside the cell than outside the cell, the water from outside the cell will move towards the solute to create an equilibrium. The term hypotonic solution means lowly concentrated with solute.
What are the two main types of cellular transport?
Two main types of cellular transportation are active and passive transport

The net movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration is called a. active transport b. osmosis c. nonrandom movement d. diffusion
d. diffusion
The process by which particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration is known as
diffusion
4 types of active transport:
endocytosis, phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and exocytosis
When materials pass into and out of the cell at equal rates, there is no net change in concentration inside the cell. The cell is in a state of:
equilibrium
When particles move across the membrane from a high to low concentration and require the help from transport proteins, it is called?
facilitated diffusion
Many cell membranes have protein channels that allow certain molecules to cross the membrane. In such cases, the cell membrane protein is said to facilitate, or help the diffusion of the molecules across the membrane. This process is called
facilitated diffusion (does not require use of the cell's energy)
The net movement of water across a membrane occurs
from the hypotonic side to the hypertonic side
