Hypertonic - water moves out of cell(shrivels), Hypotonic - water moves into the cell(swells), Isotonic - Cell stays the same, Diffusion - The spreading out of molecules across a membrane until the equilibrium is reached., Facilitated Diffusion - A transport protein helps to facilitate the diffusion of molecules that normally couldn‘t pass through the cell membrane., Molecular Pumps - When a cell uses energy to pump molecules across the membrane, against the [ ] gradient, through a protein channel., Endocytosis - Uses vesicles to move large particles into a cell., Exocytosis - Uses vesicles to export materials out of the cell., Osmosis - the net movement of water across a semipermeable membrane., Solution - a homogeneous mixture of solvent and solute molecules., Solute - substance that is dissolved in a solvent to make a solution., Solvent - a substance that dissolves another to form a solution., Hydrophobic - water fearing, Hydrophilic - water loving, Active Transport - energy-requiring process that moves material across a cell membrane against a concentration difference., Passive Transport - movement of particles across membranes that does not require energy, Semi-Permeable - allows the passage of some materials freely, but restricts the passage of other materials entirely., Homeostasis - process by which organisms maintain a relatively stable internal environment, Lipid Bilayer - double-layered sheet that forms the core of nearly all cell membranes,
