ACTIVITY FOR CELL PROCESSES

All cells carry out common processes to sustain life.

Complete the chart below by filling in the blanks in the table with the missing information.

| |Name of Process |What it does |Result |

|1 |Plant cell |Store food, water, waste products |Vacuole in cytoplasm |

|2 |Active transport |transport of molecules that requires energy, or ATP |causes molecules to deliberately go up a concentration |

| | | |gradient |

|3 |Osmosis |Water moves from a lower concentration of solute |input of energy across a semi-permeable membrane separating|

| | |through a semi permeable membrane |two solutions of different concentrations |

| | | | |

|4. |Cellular respiration |the metabolic reactions and processes that take place |break large molecules into smaller ones, releasing energy |

| | |in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical |in the process as they break high-energy bonds |

| | |energy from nutrients into (ATP) | |

|5. |Photosynthesis |Plants use sunlight and inorganic molecules |Ultimate source of all food on Earth |

|6. |Fermentation...
