Below are several questions asking you to think about how a variety of substances transfer into or out of the cell membrane. Remember to consider the difference between active and passive transport as you answer these questions.
Question 1
1.

Hypotonic
Isotonic
Question 4

Large molecules can diffuse through the cell membrane.
Question 5
5.
Draw a picture of a channel protein in the cell membrane and include a particle passing through the channel. Artistic skill will NOT be taken into account while grading. As long as you include a portion of the cell membrane, a channel protein, and a particle undergoing transport, you will get full credit.
