| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| A sequence of three bases forms a(n): | codon |
| Phagocytosis is an example of: | endocytosis |

| The small water channels in the cell membrane are called: | aquaporins |
| Two solutions of different concentrations of glucose are separated by a membrane that allows both glucose and water to pass through. When dynamic equilibrium is reached, there will be: | an even exchange of material across the membrane. |
