| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| In order for bilayers to form spontaneously, the ph of the solution should be | approximately neutral |
| which of the following describes what you would expect to observe in cells treated with the inhibitor of transport vesicle. | an accumulation of insulin in the golgi |
| Prokaryotes absorb their nutrients from the envronment; however, prokaryotes also have cell walls. | cell walls are permeable,allowing nutrients to pass through. |
| the most abundant organic molecule in nature is | cellulose |
| the interior region of a phopholipid bilayer can be characerized by being | hydrophobic. |
| disorders of which organelle are often associated with defects in transport from compartment to compartment, resulting in poor sorting of protein components within the cell? | golgi apparatus. |
| which of the following molecules would most likely require a transport protein to cross the plasma membrane of a red blood cell? | C6H12O6 |
| the electrical component of an electrochemical gradient is due to | a greater concentration of positive charges on the side of the membrane with the highest concentration of protons. |
| Glycosylation | the addition of sugars to lipids or proteins |
| Where are the light-capturing pigments located in a chloroplast? | thylakoid membrane |
| Some diseases can result from defective transport across the membrane. For example, cystic fibrosis results from a chloride ion transporter that does not function. which of the following would be affected when this transporter does not function? | Both the chloride concentration gradient and the electrical gradient of the cell will be both affected. |
| Amino acids with hydrophobic side chains are most often found buried in the interior of folded proteins | true |
| How is micelle different from a liposome? | All of the answer options are correct. |
| A lysosome enzyme works best at a ph of | 5 |
| The random movement of molecules is referred to as | diffusion |
| Which of the following is part of the endomembrane system of eukaryotic cell? | nuclear envelope, golgi apparatus, and vesicles all of the above. |
| The sodium/potassium pump is an example of | an antiporter |
| Which of the following properly groups a junctional complex with a cytoskeleton structure and cell adhesion molecule? | adherens junction, microfilimant, and cadherin. |
| Lamellipodia are formed by | the polymerization of actin filaments. |
| Strucutres known as microvilli are assocated with | increased surface area for nutrient absorption. |
| what if a tail of a myosin is missing? | muscles would not contract. |
| cellular crawling motion is accomplished by | the polymerization of microfilaments along the leading edge in response to an activated cell surface receptor. |
| Some skeletal elements are more permanent than others. Which components of the cytoskeleton are dynamic structures? | both microtubules and microfilaments. |
| Which of the following statements about intracellular transport is true? | microtubules and microfilaments facilitate cellular movement, but intermediate filaments do not. |
| dynein motor proteins use atp energy to | carry vesicles along a microtubule within a cell in a plus-to-minus direction. |
| The three untreated cultures of cells were included in the experiment | as a control group. |
| The molecule lignin is associated with which property of a cell wall? | water resistence. |
| Which of the following pairs includes junctional complexes that perform similar functions? | desmosomes and adherens junctions. |
| Which of the following correctly lists te major tissues found in plants? | dermal, ground, vascular. |
| dynamic instability of microtubules | allows microtubules to perform their functions. |
| the extracellular matrix is composed of | proteins and polysaccharides. |
| which of the following pairs includes junctional complexes that perform similar functions? | plasmodesmata and gap junctions. |
| dynamic instability is the rapid grown and shrinkage of | microtubules. |
| Difference in adheriens junction and desmosome | While both adherens junctions and desmosomes connect cells by using cadherin proteins, adherens junctions connect to microfilaments while desmosomes connect to intermediate filaments inside the cell. |
| flagella move | in a whiplike motion by the motor protein dynein sliding microtubules past each other. |
| Kinesis is a motor protein found attached to | microtubules |
| Predict what would happen if an embryonic epidermal cell switched from expressing e-cadherin to n-cadherin | the cell would leave the epidermis and join the neural cells. |
