Cellular Transport WORKSHEET

This document provides a worksheet on cellular transport with definitions of terms to match and questions to answer. It begins by having the student match terms like diffusion, osmosis, exocytosis, and plasmolysis with their definitions. Then, students are asked to identify true/false statements and correct any false statements. Finally, pictures of plant and animal cells demonstrate different transport processes like osmosis, diffusion, and endocytosis for the student to label.

CELLULAR TRANSPORT WORKSHEET


Match the definition on the left with the term on the right.
1. _____ release of wastes or cell products from inside to outside a cell a. diffusion
2. _____ diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable
membrane
b. equilibrium
3. _____ loss of water from a cell resulting in a drop-in turgor pressure in c. exocytosis
plants. Plasma membrane detaches from the cell wall d. osmosis
4. _____ continuous movement of particles but no overall change in e. plasmolysis
concentration
5. _____ movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to one
of lower concentration

In the space at the left, write true if the statement is true. If the statement is false, change the
italicized term to make the statement true. Write this answer in the blank provided.

_______________ 7. A solution in which the concentration of dissolved substances is lower than the
concentration inside a cell is hypertonic.
_______________ 8. The internal pressure of a plant cell is called turgor pressure.
_______________ 9. In passive transport, the movement of particles across a membrane requires energy.
_______________ 10. Endocytosis is a process by which a cell membrane surrounds and takes in material
from
the environment.
_______________ 11. The passive transport of material across a membrane by means of transport proteins
is
called activated diffusion.
_______________ 12. A membrane that allows only some materials to pass through shows
selective permeability.

Hi-lite the word or phrase that best completes the statement or answers the question.

1. The structure most responsible for maintaining cell homeostasis is the


cytoplasm cell wall mitochondria cell membrane

2. A cell membrane is made up of a(n)


cholesterol layer enzyme layer lipid bilayer protein layer

3. Which of the following is not a form of passive transport?


facilitated diffusion diffusion endocytosis osmosis

4. Diffusion continues until


equilibrium is reached turgor pressure is reached one side has more

5. If a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by


osmosis diffusion active transport phagocytosis

6. If it is not watered, a tulip plant wilt because it


increases active transport loses turgor pressure increases turgor pressure

7. A cell moves particles from a region of lesser concentration to a region of greater concentration by
facilitated diffusion osmosis passive transport active transport
Use the pictures on the left to answer the questions on the right.

1. Plant cell after being over-watered.

a. Water rushes into the plant cell’s vacuole. Is this


diffusion or osmosis? _________________________

b. Is this passive or active transport?


_____________________
c. What is the force called that causes water to rush into
the plant cell? ____________________________
d. Does turgor pressure increase or decrease?
_______________
e. Is the plant cell in a hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic
environment? _________________________________
f. What will more likely occur to the cell if this continues,
plasmolysis or cytolysis? ________________________

2. Plant cell after not being watered lately, so it has begun to wilt:

a. Which way will the water go? Into the vacuole, or out of the
vacuole? ______________________
b. By what process will the water move?
c. Does turgor pressure increase or decrease? ____________
d. Is the plant cell in a hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic
environment? _____________________________
e. What will more likely occur to the cell if this continues,
cytolysis or plasmolysis? __________________________

3. An amoeba engulfs a particle of food.

a. Does this require energy?


_______________________
b. Is this active or passive transport?

c. Is this endocytosis or exocytosis?
