Cell Transport Worksheet

The document is a worksheet focused on cell transport concepts, including isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic solutions, as well as various transport mechanisms like osmosis and active transport. It includes tables for matching terms with descriptions, labeling diagrams, and answering questions about the movement of water and solutes in cells. The worksheet aims to reinforce understanding of how cells interact with their environment through different transport processes.

Doesn’t change the shape of a cell
Causes osmosis
Causes a cell to shrink
Match the term with its correct description:
a. energy e. active transport
b. facilitated diffusion f. exocytosis
c. endocytosis g. carrier protein
d. passive transport h. channel protein
________ Transport protein that provides a tube-like opening in the plasma membrane
through which particles can diffuse
________ Is used during active transport but not passive transport
________ Process by which a cell takes in material by forming a vacuole around it
________ Particle movement from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower
concentration
________ Process by which a cell expels wastes from a vacuole
________ A form of passive transport that uses transport proteins
________ Particle movement from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher
concentration
________ Transport protein that changes shape when a particle binds with it

Match the term with its correct description:


a. transport protein d. passive transport g. exocytosis
b. active transport e. osmosis h. equilibrium
c. diffusion f. endocytosis

_____ The diffusion of water through a cell membrane


_____ The movement of substances through the cell membrane without the use of cellular
energy
_____ Used to help substances enter or exit the cell membrane
_____ When energy is required to move materials through a cell membrane
_____ When the molecules of one substance are spread evenly throughout another substance
to become balanced
Label the diagrams of cells using the following terms: diffusion, active transport, osmosis,
equilibrium. The arrows show the direction of transport. You may use the terms more than
once!

High
CO2 8 H2O 25 glucose
levels molecules molecules

2 H2O molecules
Low CO2 levels 5 glucose molecules

High 10 H2O
2 H2 O protein molecules
molecules levels

8 H2O molecules Low protein levels 10 H2O molecules

Osmosis
Osmosis is the diffusion of water from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Only
water moves in osmosis! The diagrams below show the concentration of water and salt inside the cell and the
concentration of water and salt surrounding the cell. Complete the sentences below by comparing the
concentration of the water inside the cell and the concentration outside the cell.
1.
a. Water will flow _____________________ (into the
5% NaCl 95% NaCl cell, out of the cell, in both directions).
95% H2O 5% H2O
b. The cell will ______________________ (shrink, burst,
stay the same).

a. Water will flow _____________________ (into the cell, out


2. of the cell, in both directions).
5% NaCl 5% NaCl
95% H2O 95% H2O
b. The cell will ______________________ (shrink, burst, stay
the same).

3. a. Water will flow _____________________ (into the cell, out


of the cell, in both directions).

95% NaCl 5% NaCl b. The cell will ______________________ (shrink, burst, stay
5% H2O 95% H2O the same).
4. At which solution of concentration gradient is each cell diagram? (Hypotonic, Hypertonic, Isotonic)

a. _____________ b. ________________ c. __________
