you don't understand some of these questions(I don't either) please try and post some answers. Thank You so much in advance.
PassiveCellular Transport (high to low concentration)

▪Diffusion –when, why & how does it occur?
▪Osmosis –when, why & how does it occur?
▪Facilitated diffusion –when, why & how does it occur?

Active Cellular Transport (low to high concentration)

▪Active transport –when, why & how does it occur?
▪Endocytosis –when, why & how does it occur? (phagocytosis vs. pinocytosis)
▪Exocytosis –when, why & how does it occur?

Answer:

1 - Diffusion is when small, non-polar molecules pass through the cell membrane. It happens so that the cell can get vital nutrients, it is a type of passive transport.

2 - Osmosis is the transport of water through the cell membrane. It is a type of passive transport, the water moves to the side of the cell with less water.

3 - Facilitated diffusion is when protein channels or transports help large polar molecules like glucose that ordinarily couldn't get through the cell membrane pass through the membrane.

4 - Active transport is when a molecule requires energy, ATP, to pass through the cell membrane. An example of this is molecular pumps, the use energy, ATP, to work.

5 - Endocytosis is when a vesicle captures an outside substance for the cell. There are two types of endocytosis, phagocytosis, which is "cell eating" where the cell digests solids, the there's pinocytosis, which is "cell drinking" where the cell digests liquids.

6 - Exocytosis is when a vesicle removes a substance from the cell by combining with the cell membrane and pushing it out.

7 - The Membrane is made out of phospholipids

8 - Carrier proteins help molecules that are large and polar get into the cell.

As part of a science experiment, Jose did a test for starch on a slice of apple and a slice of potato. The yellow-orange iodine
Sever21 [200]
If iodine solution reacts with starch, it will change color into black.
Since the yellow-orange iodine solution stayed the same <span>color when it was put on the apple, it can be concluded that there is no starch in the apple. On the other case, the black color of the potato suggests that there is a great amount of starch in the potato. Anyway, this does not mean that there is no starch in the apple at all. As fruits ripen, starch slowly changes to sugar. Iodine cannot react with sugar, so the black color in the apple is missing.</span>

True or False Questions: 1. When a cell is put into an isotonic solution, individual water molecules cannot move back and forth
lord [1]
1.) It is True that when a cell is put into an isotonic solution, individual water molecules cannot move back and forth across the cell membrane. 
2) It is False that a when a cell is put into a hypertonic solution, there is a net movement of water molecules across the cell membrane into the cell. 
3) It is True that when a cell is out into a hypotonic solution, there is net movement.
4) It is False that the movement of any solvent across a semi-permeable membrane is called osmosis.

_____ allows populations to adapt to the abiotic and biotic conditions where they live.
denis-greek [22]
<span>Natural selection is what allows a population to adapt because the animals that adapt are the ones that mate and pass along their genes. Without natural selection, evolution or adaptation would not be able to occur.</span>
