What keeps them alive?

Moving Cellular Materials

• Cells have a _____ membrane that regulates what goes into or out of the cell.

• Diffusion - when molecules move away from areas where there are more of them into areas where there are _____ of them; stops when molecules of one substance are spread evenly throughout another substance and _____ occurs.

• Osmosis - the diffusion of _____ through a cell membrane.

• In facilitated diffusion, _____ move substances into and out of the cell.

• Active transport requires _____ to move substances through a cell membrane.

• Endocytosis - the process in which a substance is taken into a cell by surrounding it with the _____, forming a sphere called a vesicle.

• Exocytosis - the process in which the membrane of the vesicle fuses with the cell’s membrane and the vesicle’s contents are _____ the cell.
