Pregunta 14

Pregunta
An important role of the cell membrane is to:
Respuesta
  • store materials
  • change the rate of which chemical reactions occur
  • constructs proteins for the cells
  • maintain homeostasis

Pregunta 15

Pregunta
the cell membrane is said to be selectively permeable because it
Respuesta
  • is ultra thin and flexible
  • composed of lipids and proteins
  • allows only certain molecules to move through it
  • allows all molecules to pass through it, but only very slowly

Pregunta 16

Pregunta
what happens during diffusion?
Respuesta
  • molecules move automatically from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration

Pregunta
during passive transport
Respuesta

Pregunta 23

Pregunta
some single-celled organisms live in fresh water (100% water) lakes. what problem do they encounter on a daily basis?
Respuesta
  • water is diffusing through their cell membrane and they may burst if it is not removed
  • water is diffusing out of their cell membrane and may shrivel up and die if water is not pumped back into the cell
  • both a and b
  • they do not encounter any problems living in the freshwater lake

Pregunta 24

Pregunta
human blood cells placed in a 2% salt solution appear to shrink, but those placed in a 0.4% salt solution burst. which statement best supports these observations?
Respuesta
