Matching
Match each definition with a word.
1. strong and unreasonable fear of something.
Phobia
2. A process by which the cells mitochondria take in
oxygen to break apart sugar (glucose)ultimately
releasing energy in the form of ATP.
_________________
3. The movement of particles across the
concentration gradient, from an area of higher
concentration to an area of lower concentration
until equilibrium is reached.

4. The process by which plant cells release water
vapor to the atmosphere ultimately allowing more
uptake of water at the roots.
5. Greek root meaning "water"
6. The movement of particles from an area of low
concentration to an area of high concentration thus
requiring the cell to use energy as the movement is
against the gradient.

7. A process by which cells use energy to transport a 8. a. The process by which plant cells use light,
large particle, such as a large protein molecule,
water, and carbon dioxide to make food.
through a cell membrane into the cytoplasm.
b. Green plants use energy from sunlight to unite
water and carbon dioxide, thus forming sugar.

oxygen.

11. The process by which a cell uses energy to
remove particles (in a vesicle) that are to large to
fit through the cell membrane.
12. Diffusion of water molecules through a semi
permeable membrane from a place of higher
concentration to a place of lower concentration
until the concentration on both sides is equal.

15. a. The state when molecules are spread out
evenly throughout a given space. There is no
gradient once this state is reached.
14. The movement of particles through the cell
membrane in which no energy is used this is due
to the particles moving with the gradient.

b. When concentrations of substances are equal
