Let's go through the Cell Transport Review Worksheet step by step and solve each section with explanations.

Part 1: Complete the table by checking the correct column for each statement



| Statement | Isotonic solution | Hypotonic solution | Hypertonic solution |
|---------|-------------------|--------------------|---------------------|
| Causes a cell to swell | | | |
| Doesn't change the shape of a cell | | | |
| Causes osmosis | | | |
| Causes a cell to shrink | | | |

Explanation:

- Hypotonic solution: Lower solute concentration outside the cell → Water enters the cell → Cell swells.
- Isotonic solution: Equal solute concentration inside and outside → No net movement of water → Shape unchanged.
- Hypertonic solution: Higher solute concentration outside → Water leaves the cell → Cell shrinks (plasmolysis in plants, crenation in animals).
- Osmosis occurs in all three cases because it is the diffusion of water across a membrane. It just happens that the *net direction* differs.

So:
- "Causes a cell to swell" → Hypotonic
- "Doesn't change the shape" → Isotonic
- "Causes osmosis" → All three (osmosis always occurs when there’s a difference in water potential)
- "Causes a cell to shrink" → Hypertonic

The table is already correctly filled as shown.

Part 2: Match the term with its correct description



We are given:

Terms:
a. energy
b. facilitated diffusion
c. endocytosis
d. passive transport
e. active transport
f. exocytosis
g. carrier protein
h. channel protein

Now match them to the descriptions:

1. Transport protein that provides a tube-like opening in the plasma membrane through which particles can diffuse
→ This describes a channel proteinh

2. Is used during active transport but not passive transport
→ Active transport requires energya

3. Process by which a cell takes in material by forming a vacuole around it
→ This is endocytosisc

4. Particle movement from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
→ This is diffusion, which is part of passive transportd

5. Process by which a cell expels wastes from a vacuole
→ This is exocytosisf

6. A form of passive transport that uses transport proteins
→ This is facilitated diffusionb

7. Particle movement from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration
→ This is active transporte

So the answers are:

- H → h (channel protein)
- A → a (energy)
- C → c (endocytosis)
- D → d (passive transport)
- F → f (exocytosis)
- B → b (facilitated diffusion)
- E → e (active transport)

Wait — the worksheet has blanks labeled with letters like _H_, _A_, etc., so let’s recheck the order:

The worksheet says:

> ___ Transport protein that provides a tube-like opening... → Hh. channel protein
> ___ Is used during active transport but not passive transport → Aa. energy
> ___ Process by which a cell takes in material by forming a vacuole... → Cc. endocytosis
> ___ Particle movement from high to low concentration → Dd. passive transport
> ___ Process by which a cell expels wastes from a vacuole → Ff. exocytosis
> ___ A form of passive transport that uses transport proteins → Bb. facilitated diffusion
> ___ Particle movement from low to high concentration → Ee. active transport

Correct matches:
- H → h
- A → a
- C → c
- D → d
- F → f
- B → b
- E → e

✔️ Done.

Part 3: Match the term with its correct description (Second set)



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

Now match:

1. The diffusion of water through a cell membranee. osmosis

2. The movement of substances through the cell membrane without the use of cellular energyd. passive transport

3. Used to help substances enter or exit the cell membranea. transport protein (carrier or channel proteins)

4. When energy is required to move materials through a cell membraneb. active transport

5. When the molecules of one substance are spread evenly throughout another substance to become balancedh. equilibrium

6. A vacuole membrane fuses (becomes a part of) the cell membrane and the contents are releasedg. exocytosis

7. The cell membrane forms around another substance, for example, how the amoeba gets its foodf. endocytosis

8. When molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentrationc. diffusion

Answers:
- E → e (osmosis)
- D → d (passive transport)
- A → a (transport protein)
- B → b (active transport)
- H → h (equilibrium)
- G → g (exocytosis)
- F → f (endocytosis)
- C → c (diffusion)

✔️ Matches are correct.

Part 4: Label the diagrams of cells using: diffusion, active transport, osmosis, equilibrium



There are four diagrams:

#### Diagram 1:
- Arrow pointing into cell from "Low CO₂ levels" to "High CO₂ levels"
- But CO₂ is moving from low to high concentration? Wait — no:
- Outside: Low CO₂ → Inside: High CO₂
- Arrow points into the cell → From low to high → That means against gradient → Requires energy → Active transport

But wait — actually, CO₂ is a waste product, and it moves out of cells. However, here the diagram shows CO₂ entering the cell from low to high concentration? That doesn’t make sense unless it's being actively taken in (rare).

But looking at the arrow: From low CO₂ to high CO₂ inside → Moving into high concentration → Active transport

So label: ACTIVE

Answer: ACTIVE

#### Diagram 2:
- Two water molecules going out of the cell
- Inside: 8 H₂O molecules → Outside: 2 H₂O molecules
- Water moves from high concentration (inside) to low concentration (outside) → Osmosis

So: OSMOSIS

Answer: OSMOSIS

#### Diagram 3:
- 2 H₂O molecules going in and 2 H₂O molecules going out
- Net movement = zero → Equal on both sides → Equilibrium

Answer: EQUILIBRIUM

#### Diagram 4:
- Protein moving from low protein levelshigh protein levels (arrow into cell)
- Moving from low to high concentration → Against gradient → Requires energy → Active transport

Answer: ACTIVE

So final labels:

1. ACTIVE
2. OSMOSIS
3. EQUILIBRIUM
4. ACTIVE

✔️ Correct.
