Study Notes
- Active transport requires energy to move substances across the cell membrane.
- Aerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen to produce ATP.
- Alcoholic fermentation involves yeast converting sugar into ethanol and carbon dioxide.
- Anaerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration that occurs without oxygen and produces less ATP.
- ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the primary energy source for cells, enabling cellular processes.
- Autotrophs are organisms, like plants, that can produce their own food through photosynthesis.
- Cellular respiration is the process by which cells break down food using oxygen to generate ATP.
- Chemosynthesis is an autotrophic process where organisms obtain energy from inorganic materials like nitrogen and sulfur.
- Chlorophyll is a pigment in chloroplasts that absorbs most colors of light except green, which it reflects.
- Solutes move through a concentration gradient from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration in diffusion.
- Concentration gradient describes the movement of solutes from high to low concentration areas.
- Dynamic equilibrium is a state of balanced activity between ongoing processes.
- During endocytosis, the cell membrane surrounds a substance, forming a vacuole within the cell, which requires energy.
- During exocytosis, a material fuses with the cell membrane, expelling the material out of the cell, which requires energy.
- Facilitated diffusion involves the transport of substances across a cell membrane along a concentration gradient with the aid of proteins.
- Heterotrophs are organisms, such as animals, that must obtain food from their environment.
- In a hypertonic solution, water exits the cell, causing it to shrink and lose mass.
- In a hypotonic solution, water enters the cell, causing it to swell and gain mass.
- In an isotonic solution, water flows equally in both directions, maintaining the cell's size.
- Lactic acid fermentation occurs in muscle cells during exercise, breaking down sugars to produce ATP.
- Light energy is energy derived from the sun.
- Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane.
- Passive transport involves the movement of ions or particles from high to low concentration areas without energy input.
- Plasmolysis is the shrinking of a plant cell's cytoplasm and plasma membrane away from the cell wall due to water loss.
- Photosynthesis is the process used by plants and some algae to convert sunlight into energy.
- Selectively permeable membranes allow certain materials to pass through while blocking others.
- Semipermeable membranes only allow some substances to pass through.
- A solute is the substance that is dissolved in a solution.
- A solution is a mixture of two or more substances, where one (the solute) dissolves in the other (the solvent).
- A solvent is the substance in a solution that dissolves the solute.
- Turgor pressure is the force exerted by water molecules against the cell wall.
