| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Membrane proteins are not very soluble in water, because they possess long stretches of non-polar amino acids that | are hydrophobic |
| If a cell has the same concentration of dissolved molecules as of its outside environment, the cell's condition is called as being | isotonic |
| a type of transport of a solute across a membrane, up its concentration gradient, using protein carriers driven by the expenditure of chemical energy is known as | active transport |
| the part of a membrane protein that extends through the phospholipid bilayer is primarily composed of amino acids that are | non-polar |
| the movement of substances to regions of lower concentration is called | diffusion |
| the process often thought of as "cell eating" is | phagocytosis |
| Carrier-mediated transport is also called | facilitated diffusion |
| cholesterol functions in the plasma membrane to | maintain fluidity |
| if a blood research lab is attempting to collect the content of human red blood cells, the researchers should use which of the following types of solutions to cause blood cell lysis | hypoosmotic |
| If a living plant were moved from a freshwater aquarium to a saltwater aquarium, which of the following would occur | the plant's cells will lose water |
| which phrase does NOT describe one of the functions of proteins of the plasma membrane | initiating the replication of the genetic material |
| if a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, which will occur | water will move out of the cell into the surrounding solution |
