What is it called when sugar passes through an animal cell?

glucose (sugar) can diffuse through cell membranes


Using examples of a cell in a sugar solution explain what is ment by an isotonic solution?

An state of isotonicity means that the concentration of sugar outside the cell is the same as inside the cell. It is also known as osmotic equililbrium. Any sugar that crosses into the cell through the membrane is offset by an equal amount of sugar exiting the cell through that membrane.


What is produced when sugar is disgested in a animal cell?

They use sugar (glucose) to make energy (ATP) to drive the cell processes. They are called the powerhouses of the cell.


What sugar is in a cell wall?

Cellulose


Do large cells move across the cell membrane quickly?

A large cell will never move across an intact cell membrane.

If water move into a cell and the cell swells what terms describe the environment inside the cell?

The concentration of a sugar is high inside a cell and slightly lower outside the cell what is most likely to occur if the sugar molecules can cross the membrane


Why is an advantage for plants to store products of photosynthesis as starch and not sugar?

Starch does not dissolve in the fluid in the cell, so does not affect water potential. Sugar does dissolve, so would reduce water potential of the cell and cause water to move in to the cell by osmosis.


In Word you can move to a cell in a table by clicking in the cell with the mouse or you can move to the cell by pressing the which key on the keyboard?

Tab will move to the next cell and Shift-Tab will move to the previous cell. You can also use the arrow keys to move from one cell to another.


A sugar molecule attaches to a special channel on the cell which helps it move from the outside to the inside without letting cytoplasm escape What is this an example of?

Facilitated diffusion

How would sugar entering a cell that already contains a high concentration of sugar get through a cell membrane into a cell?

It would be Active Transport.


Is the way sugar enters a cell if there is more sugar outside the cell than inside the cell passive or active?

Passive (just guessing)


What characteristics about a cell determine how many materials move in and out?

The cell membrane determines what can move in or out of the cell.
