Q

Does diffusion require energy

25
does diffusion occur when particles spread from areas where they are less concentrated to areas where they are more concetrated
No
26
Does diffusion occur even after equilibrium is reached and no net charge is apparent?
Yes
27
Diffusion does not require ATP. therefore atp diffusion is concedered _______ transportation
passive
28
When 2 aqueous solutions that differ in solute concentration are placed on either side of a semipermeable membrane and osmosis is allowed to take place, the water will:
move from the side with lower solute concentration to the side with higher solute concentration
29
Some protozoans have special organelles called contractile vacuoles that continually eliminate excess water from the cell. the presence of these organelles tells you that the enviroment is:
is hypotonic to the protozoan
30
A cell that has neither a net gain of water nor net loss of water when it is immersed in a solution must be ______ to its environment
isotonic
31
In a hypotonic solution an animal cell will
lyse
32
You are adrift in the Atlantic Ocean and, being thirsty, drink the surrounding seawater. As a result, you ______
dehydrate yourself
33
Facilitated diffusion across a biological membrane requires _______ and moves a substance _______ its concentration gradient
transport proteins; down
34
The molecules responsible for membrane transport are
proteins
35
what do aquaporins do
allow water to cross the plasma membrane via facilitated diffusion
36
What moves a solute against its concentration gradient
active transport
37
Which of the following is a typical feature of an ATP-driven acitve transport mechanism The transport protein must cross to the correct side of the membrane before the solute can bind it The trasport protein is irreversibly phosphorylated as transport takes place The transport protein catalyzes the conversion of ADP to ATP The solute moves against the concentration gradient
The trasport protein is irreversibly phosphorylated as transport takes place
38
Certain cells that line the stomach synthesize a digestive enzyme and secrete it into the stomach. This enzyme is a protein. Which of the processes could be responsible for its secretion
exocytosis
39
The process of a white blood cell engulfing a bacterium is
phagocytosis
40
Kinetic energy differs from chemical energy in that
kinetic energy is the energy of a moving object, whereas chemical energy is th potenital energy of molecules
41
which law of thermodynamics states energy cannot be created or destroyed
1st
42
Which of the following direct energy transfers is impossible in living systems: Light energy to chemical energy Chem to kinetic Light to potential Heat to light
Heat to light
43
Which of the following processes is endergonic Burning wood synthesis of glucose from CO2 & water Breakdown of glucose Cellular respiration
synthesis of glucose from CO2 & water
44
What is the basic difference btw exergonic and endergonic reactions
exergonic releases energy while endergonic absorbs it
45
Does ATP release energy when one phosphate group leaves it?
yes
46
how many phosophate groups make up ATP
3
47
When an enzyme catalyzes a reaction, it ______ the activation energy of the reaction
lowers
48
Substrates bind to an enzymes ____ site
active
49
What are the 4 structures that plant cells have that animal cells do not
cell wall, chloroplasts, plastids, and a central vacuole
50
What are the 6 structures in the endomembrane system? how are they related
Nuclear envelope, ER, Golgi, Lysosomes, Vesicles, Membrane, work together to package and transport lipids/proteins
51
4 functions of the smooth ER
synthesis of lipids, steroid hormones, the detoxification of harmful metabolic byproducts and the storage and metabolism of calcium ions within the cell.
52
What are the 2 types of endocytosis
pinocytosis and phagocytosis
53
Name the 3 types of protein fiber in cytoskeleton
Microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules
54
What is a fluid mosaic model
The fluid mosaic model explains various characteristics regarding the structure of functional cell membranes
55
What is osmosis
the moement of water down its concentration gradient
56
What is the difference btw exergonic and endergonic? examples?
Exergonic breaksdown molecules while endergonic builds them. Endergonic takes lower potential energy and makes high. Exer takes high potential energy and creates low energy products
57
Is exergonic catabolic or anabolic
catabolic
58
Is endergonic catabolic or anabolic
anabolic
