Question 1

1.

Which of the following are functions of the cell membrane?

Ribosomes

Nucleic acids

Proteins

Carbohydrates

Question 4

4.

Semipermeable

Phospholipid bilayer

Cell wall

Fluid mosaic

Plasma membrane

Question 5

Solute

Solvent

Neither

Question 6

6.

In a cup of salt water the water would be referred to as the ...

Solute

Solvent

Neither

Question 7

7.

Which type of membrane transport do not use energy to occur?

Active transport

Passive transport

Osmosis

Facilitated diffusion

Simple diffusion

Question 8

8.

Which of the following can move through a cell membrane without a protein channel?

A small and non-polar molecule

A large and non-polar molecule

A small and polar molecule

A large and polar molecule

Question 9

9.

Which of the following is true if a solute has reached dynamic equilibrium between the two sides of a membrane?

The solute has stopped moving

The solute is moving across the membrane at about an equal rate

The concentration of the solute is about equal on both sides of the membrane

The membrane no longer allows the solute to move in order to maintain equilibrium

Use the next image to answer the questions that follow. Note: if there is not a protein channel drawn do not assume it is there.

Question 10

10.

To start, the inside of the cell is ____ for CO2.

Hypertonic

Hypotonic

Isotonic

Question 11

11.

Can the CO2 move on its own (without a protein channel)?

Yes

No

Question 12

12.

Where will the CO2 move?

All of the CO2 will move inside the cell

The CO2 will move inside the cell until it reaches dynamic equilibrium

All of the CO2 will move outside of the cell

The CO2 will move outside the cell until it reaches dynamic equilibrium

The CO2 won’t move so water will move
