Match the diagrams of cells above from left to right with their correct type of transport.

The following process involves vesicles and the cell membrane working together to push materials outside of the cell. (endocytosis, exocytosis, protein pump)

The following process involves the cell membrane and vesicles working together to bring materials into the cell.

An osmosis investigation was conducted using chicken eggs to represent cells with semipermeable membranes. The mass of each egg was measured to determine how much water diffused into or out of the eggs. The eggs were first soaked in vinegar to dissolve the shell. Each egg was then placed in one of three different solutions for 24 hours. The table below shows the results of the investigation.

Based on this experiment, which of the following should be inferred about cells with semipermeable membranes?

The following process is (endocytosis, exocytosis, protein pump)

Select ALL of the following that are not the primary difference between diffusion and osmosis. (3 choices)

If you place a plant cell in a hypotonic solution it will (wilt, shrink, expand, no change)…

Select ALL of the following examples that do not illustrate osmosis? (3 choices)

Pinocytosis is a term known as “cell drinking” The cell membrane forms a vesicle around small particles and brings them into the cell. This is also a form of

Which of the statements from the table above are true for facilitated transport?

Match the type of transport next to it’s correct letter.

What is the difference between the two types of passive transport?

Match the following examples with the correct term.

In a hypertonic solution water will flow                                                                      , and the cell will                                          .

In a hypotonic solution water will flow                                                      , and the cell will                          .

In an isotonic solution water will flow                                                 , and the cell will                                                 .

Match the following terms with their correct description.
