Cell Trasport Worksheet ANSWER KEY

The document summarizes key concepts about cell transport: 1) It provides a table to identify whether isotonic, hypotonic, or hypertonic solutions cause cells to swell or shrink. 2) It matches transport terms like facilitated diffusion, active transport, and exocytosis with their definitions. 3) Diagrams illustrate diffusion, active transport, osmosis, and equilibrium across cell membranes. 4) An activity identifies whether cells will shrink or burst in solutions of different salt and water concentrations and labels them as hypotonic, isotonic, or hypertonic. 5) Key terms like osmosis, passive transport, and their definitions are identified.

Cell Transport Review Worksheet

Complete the table by checking the correct column for each statement:
Statement Isotonic Hypotonic Hypertonic
solution solution solution
Causes a cell to swell
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
A vacuole membrane fuses (becomes a part of) the cell membrane and the contents are
released
The cell membrane forms around another substance, for example, how the amoeba gets its food
When molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration
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
molecules molecules
levels

2 H2O molecules
Low CO2 levels 5 glucose molecules

High 10 H2O
2 H2O protein molecules
molecules levels

8 H2O molecules Low protein levels 10 H2O molecules

Osmosis Practice Activity


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