| The ligand for the sodium channel linked to an acetylcholine receptor is _________blank. | acetylcholine |
| Which of the following is true regarding the opening of a sodium ion channel? | It allows the diffusion of sodium ions down its own concentration gradient |
| A ligand can bind to a(n) _________blank on an ion channel. | receptor |
| what is the Golgi complex function? | To regulate transport and modify newly synthesized proteins |
| Mitochondria function | To produce ATP via cellular respiration |
| rough endoplasmic reticulum function: | To synthesize protein for secretion, insertion into the plasma membrane, and lysosomal enzymes |
| Which is false Inclusions are not enclosed by a membrane. Inclusions have no functions that are necessary for cellular survival. Inclusions can participate in ATP production in the cell. Inclusions could be viruses or bacteria inside the cell. | Inclusions can participate in ATP production in the cell. |
| Simple diffusion is defined as the movement of | molecules from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration |
