Question

Match the following with the descriptions below Pinocytosis Phagocytosis Passive absorption Active absorption Facilitated diffusion Match each of the options above to the items below. Movement of nutrients down a concentration gradient; requires no carrier and no energy Movement of nutrients down a concentration gradient; requires no carrier and no energy Open choices for matching Movement of nutrients against a concentration gradient; requires a carrier and energy Movement of nutrients against a concentration gradient; requires a carrier and energy Open choices for matching Movement of nutrients down a concentration gradient; requires a carrier, but does not require energy Movement of nutrients down a concentration gradient; requires a carrier, but does not require energy Open choices for matching Uptake of nutrients in which solid particles are engulfed by the absorptive cell; requires energy Uptake of nutrients in which solid particles are engulfed by the absorptive cell; requires energy Open choices for matching Uptake of nutrients in which liquids are engulfed by the absorptive cell; requires energy

Answer 1

Pinocytosis : Uptake of nutrients in which liquids are engulfed by the absorptive cell; requires energy

Phagocytosis : Uptake of nutrients in which solid particles are engulfed by the absorptive cell; requires energy

Passive absorption : Movement of nutrients down a concentration gradient; requires no carrier and no energy

Active absorption : Movement of nutrients against a concentration gradient; requires a carrier and energy

Facilitated diffusion : Movement of nutrients down a concentration gradient; requires a carrier, but does not require energy
