Question 4

Proteins embedded in cell membranes that facilitate water transport across the membrane, maintaining cellular hydration.

Answer 4

Aquaporin

Question 5

Molecules that bind to specific receptors or proteins, triggering a biological response.

Answer 5

Ligands

Question 6

The electrical potential difference across a cell membrane, generated by ion gradients and essential for cellular signaling and communication.

Answer 6

Membrane potential

Question 7

Organelles found in eukaryotic cells responsible for generating energy (ATP) through cellular respiration

Answer 7

Mitochondria

Question 8

A type of transport mechanism where two or more molecules are transported across a cell membrane simultaneously, often against their concentration gradients.

Answer 8

Contrasport

Question 9

The organelle containing most of a eukaryotic cell’s genetic material, surrounded by a double membrane called the nuclear envelope.

a membrane-bound organelle that houses the cell’s genetic material (DNA) and is the control center for cellular activities, including growth, metabolism, and reproduction.

Answer 9

Cell nucleus

Question 10

A network of membranous tubules and cisternae responsible for protein synthesis, folding, and transport within eukaryotic cells.

Answer 10

Endoplasmic reticulum

Question 11

Membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells, responsible for storing water, salts, minerals, and waste products.
