Cellular Transport Vocabulary Chart 

 Vocab Word 

 Definition  

 

 Image 

Osmosis (p. 262) 

 **passive transport 

Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane  

 

Diffusion (p. 260) 

 **passive transport 

Process by which particles tend to move from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated  

 

Facilitated Diffusion  (p. 261) 

 **passive transport 

The process of diffusion in which molecules pass across the membrane through cell membrane channels 

 

Active Transport 

(264-65, 284  

**active transport 

The movement of materials against a concentration gradient. REQUIRES ENERGY.  

 

Concentration Gradient 

any imbalance in concentration. Moving down a gradient means that the particle is trying to be evenly distributed everywhere, like dropping food coloring in water.  

 

Passive Transport 

(p. 260-263) 

movement of ions and other atomic or molecular substances across cell membranes without need of energy input

Page 5: Cellular Transport, Cells & Organelles...Cellular Transport, Cells & Organelles Vocabulary Chart Page 3 Review of Organelles Page 6 Selective Permeability Introduction Page 7 Selective

 Exocytosis (264-65) 

 **active transport 

The membrane of the vesicle or vacuole surrounding the material fuses with the cell membrane, forcing the contents out of the cell. The removal of water by means of a contractile vacuole is one example of this type of active transport.  

 

Endocytosis (264-65) 

 **active transport 

The process of taking material into the cell by means of infoldings, or pockets, of the cell membrane. Large molecules, clumps of food, and even whole cells can be taken up in this way.  

 

Pinocytosis (p. 265) 

 **active transport 

The taking up of liquid by the cell. Tiny pockets form along the cell membrane, fill with liquid, and pinch off to form vacuoles.  

 

Phagocytosis (p. 265) 

 **active transport 

 

Type of endocytosis in which extensions of cytoplasm surround a particle and package it within a food vacuole. The cell then engulfs it. White blood cells use this method to remove damaged or foreign cells and destroy them.  

 

Extracellular   

Outside of the cell 

 

Intracellular  Inside of the cell 

 

Hypotonic (p. 262) 

When comparing two solutions, the solution with the LESSER concentration of solutes  

 

Silber Science Biology Packet 2: Cellular Transport, Cells & Organelles 4 

Page 6: Cellular Transport, Cells & Organelles...Cellular Transport, Cells & Organelles Vocabulary Chart Page 3 Review of Organelles Page 6 Selective Permeability Introduction Page 7 Selective

 Hypertonic 

(p. 262) When comparing two solutions, the solution with the GREATER concentration of solute  

 

Isotonic (p. 262) 

When the concentration of two solutions is the same   

 

Permeable  Allowing liquids or gasses to pass through 

 

Impermeable  Not allowing liquid or gas to pass through 

 

Selective Permeability 

Property of biological membranes that allows some substances to pass across it while others cannot, also called semi-permeable membrane.  

 

Phospholipid Bilayer (p. 257) 

A double layered sheet called a lipid bilayer gives cell membranes a flexible structure that forms a strong barrier between the cell and its surroundings. Include fatty acid portions that have hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails.  

 

Fluid Mosaic Model 

(p. 257) 

Because so many different types of molecules make up the cell membrane, scientists describe the cell membrane as a fluid mosaic.  (Fluid because the molecules move along the membrane and mosaic based off of the type of art that involves putting bits and pieces of different colors or materials together).

The Fluid-Mosaic Model of the Cell Plasma Membrane 

The fluid-mosaic model describes

the plasma membrane of animal cells. The plasma membrane that surrounds these cells has two layers (a bilayer) of phospholipids (fats with phosphorous attached), which at body temperature are like vegetable oil (fluid). And the structure of the plasma membrane supports the old saying, “Oil and water don’t mix.”

Each phospholipid molecule has a

head that is attracted to water (hydrophilic: hydro = water; philic = loving) and a tail that repels water (hydrophobic: hydro = water; phobic = fearing). Both layers of the plasma membrane have the hydrophilic heads pointing toward the outside; the hydrophobic tails form the inside of the bilayer.

Because cells reside in a watery solution (extracellular fluid), and they contain a watery solution inside of them (cytoplasm), the plasma membrane forms a circle around each cell so that the water-loving heads are in contact with the fluid, and the water-fearing tails are protected on the inside.

Proteins and substances, such as

cholesterol, become embedded in the bilayer, giving the membrane the look of a mosaic. Because the plasma membrane has

the consistency of vegetable oil at body temperature, the proteins and other substances are able to move across it. That’s why the plasma membrane is described using the fluid-mosaic model.

The fluid-mosaic model of plasma membranes.

The molecules that are embedded in the plasma membrane also serve a purpose. For example, the cholesterol that is stuck in there makes the membrane more stable and prevents it from solidifying when your body temperature is low. (It keeps you from literally freezing when you’re “freezing.”) Carbohydrate chains attach to the outer surface of the plasma membrane of each cell. These carbohydrates are specific to every person, and they supply characteristics such as your blood type.

Transport Part 1: Passive Transport 

 Do Now 

Let’s Review: The cell membrane is 

selectively permeable . This means... 

     

The function of the cell membrane is  

     

The cell membrane helps the cell maintain homeostasis by: 

 

     

Now that we know what the cell membrane does. We are going to learn about how the cell membrane does this!

 I. Movement across the cell membrane is determined by the concentration of solute and

solvent molecules on either side of the membrane.

A. Solute:

i.e.: salt, sugar

B. Solvent:

i.e.: water

II. Diffusion: the movement of particles down a gradient

A. Gradient: any imbalance in concentration. Moving down a gradient means that

the particle is trying to be evenly distributed everywhere, like dropping food

coloring in water.

III. Passive Transport: This process NEVER requires________________________

A. There are THREE types of PASSIVE TRANSPORT:

i. Simple Diffusion:   ii. Facilitated Diffusion  iii. Osmosis: 

molecules move down the gradient 

through the membrane. Molecules 

that do this must be small.  

this type of diffusion uses 

glycoproteins in the cell membrane 

to help molecules pass into and out 

of the cell. This is still considered 

diffusion since the molecules are 

still moving from an area of high 

concentration to an area of low 

concentration. 

This is what we call the simple 

diffusion of water. It is the passive 

movement of water molecules 

through a selectively permeable 

membrane from a region of high 

water concentration to low 

concentration. A low water 

concentration can mean a high 

concentration of solutes. Water 

moves towards the hypertonic 

side.

Transport Part 2:  Solutes, Solvents and Tonicity 

 

Do Now:  

Let’s Review:  

1. True or False: Osmosis is the simple diffusion of water.  

2. Define Solute: 

 

3. Define Solvent:  

 

4. In passive transport, molecules move from (high/low) concentration to a (high/low) concentration 

(up/down) a gradient.  

5. The cell membrane helps the cell maintain homeostasis by:   

 

Homeostasis: a set of internal conditions in which an organism functions at its best.

Passive Transport 

Continued:  

a. Tonicity

a. Isotonic: the concentration of solutes is the same inside and outside of the cell. Water 

molecules move equally in both directions.   

b. Hypotonic Solution: The solution has a lower solute concentration than the cell. A net 

movement of water molecules into the cell causes it to swell.  

c. Hypertonic: the solution has a higher solute concentration than the cell. A net movement 

of water molecules out of the cell causing it to shrink.  

Isotonic Hypotonic Hypertonic 

Turgor can be caused by osmosis: Turgor is

Silber Science Biology Packet 2: Cellular Transport, Cells & Organelles 20 

Page 22: Cellular Transport, Cells & Organelles...Cellular Transport, Cells & Organelles Vocabulary Chart Page 3 Review of Organelles Page 6 Selective Permeability Introduction Page 7 Selective

Phagocytosis:   

“Cell Eating” The engulfing of large particles. The cell membrane wraps around the particles and encloses them, forming a vacuole. i.e.: white blood cells engulfing bacteria and dead cells

Pinocytosis:   “Cell Drinking” The uptake of molecules. The ingestion of liquid into a cell by the budding of a small vesicle from the cell membrane.

Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis:  

 Enables a cell to take up very large quantities of a substance. Extracellular materials bind on the surface of a cell membrane and are drawn into vesicles. This is the way in which body cells take up cholesterol from the blood. 

Sodium- Potassium Pump:  carries particles or ions across a membrane 

AGAINST the gradient. Uses______________. Since these types of transport is so costly in terms of 

energy, they are relatively rare.
