Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Tissue that makes up the structures of the nervous system		hypotonic
A stage of mitosis in a eukaryotic cell in which the chromatin condenses into chromosomes and becomes visible		active transport
A class of amphipathic lipids having both a polar and non-polar region, they are a major component of all cell membranes as they can form lipid bilayers		cell
Support tissue that binds other structures together and provides support and protection against damage, infection, or heat loss		cytokinesis
Structures comprising two or more tissues with related functions		endocytosis
Solutions of equal solute concentration		organ system
A solution with a higher total solute concentration relative to another solution (across a membrane)		phospholipid
Tissue responsible for producing both external and internal movement. Types include skeletal, cardiac, and smooth		organelle
The division of the cytoplasm of a parent eukaryotic cell into two daughter cells during the late stages of mitosis		nervous tissue
Passive movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane down a concentration gradient		prophase
A collection of cells from the same origin, which together carry out a specific function		epithelial tissue
Tissue that lines internal and external surfaces		semi-permeable membrane
The energy-requiring movement of substances across a biological membrane against a concentration gradient		cell differentiation
A group of organs that work together to perform a specific task		interphase
The basic structural, functional, and biological unit of any living organism		organ
A transmembrane protein that moves ions across a plasma membrane against their concentration gradient		metaphase
Process by which a less specialized cell becomes more specialized in order to perform a specific function		muscle tissue
A solution with a lower total solute concentration relative to another solution (across a membrane)		passive transport
A structural and functional part of the cell usually bound within its own membrane. An example is the mitochondria		ion pump
A membrane that acts selectively to allow some substances, but not others, to pass		mitosis
Active transport process by which cells take in molecules from outside the cell by engulfing it with their plasma membrane		diffusion
Active transport process by which membrane-bound secretory vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane and release the vesicle contents into the external environment		connective tissue
Movement of substances across a biological membrane without energy expenditure		exocytosis
The passive movement of molecules from high to low concentration		hypertonic
An organized structure of DNA and protein found in cells		osmosis
The phase of the cell cycle prior to cell division in which all the DNA in the nucleus is copied		telophase
A stage of mitosis in which condensed chromosomes align in the middle of the cell		chromosome
The mitosis stage where the daughter chromosomes reach the opposite poles of the cell and reform the nuclei		isotonic
The phase of a cell cycle resulting in nuclear division		tissue
