- Q1At what point in the process of diffusion is dynamic equilibrium reached?When the molecules are mixed and stop moving.When there is continuous movement, but no net change.When the rate of change in solution slows by one-half.When the molecules movement stops being random.30s
- Q2The process by which water passes into or out of a cell is called...solubility.diffusion.exocytosis.osmosis.30s
- Q3What is the difference between facilitated diffusion and active transport?Facilitated moves the molecules through the plasma membrane.Active transport uses proteins in the process.Facilitated required large amounts of energy.Active moves substances against the concentration gradient.30s
- Q4A phospholipid contains two distinctive parts:hydrophilic tails and hydrophobic heads.hydrophobic tails and hydrophilic heads.hydrophobic tails and hydrophobic heads.hydrophilic tails and hydrophobic heads.30s
- Q5A plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution. What will happen to the plant cell?It will rupture.It will swell.It will shrink.It will stay the same.30s
- Q6Which of the following is an example of passive transport?sodium-potassium pumpfacilitated diffusionendocytosisexocytosis30s
- Q7A cell moves from a region of lesser concentration to a region of greater concentration by...osmosis.facilitated diffusion.active transport.passive transport.30s
- Q8What is the composition of the cell wall, and where is it located?Cellulose, inside the cell membrane.Cellulose, outside the cell membrane.Glucose, inside the cell membrane.Glucose, outside the cell membrane.30s
- Q9A chemical was introduced to a cell and incomplete segments of proteins were found. Which organelle was impacted from the chemical?endoplasmic reticulumnucleusGolgi apparatusribosomes30s
- Q10A cell is placed in a solution and gains mass. What is the reason for the cell's gain in mass?They both have equal concentrations of solutes.The solution is hypotonic to the cell.The solution is hypertonic to the cell.They both have equal concentrations of water.30s
- Q11What is the primary function of a lysosome?harvesting of light energy to produce carbohydratesdigestion of macromolecules and old organellesprocessing & packaging of cellular materials prior to exportdetoxification of poisonous molecules within the cell30s
- Q12What kind of solution is the cell in and what molecule will move?hypertonic, waterhypotonic, salthypotonic, waterhypertonic, salt30s
- Q13What type of cell is pictured?bacteriaeukaryoticprokaryoticanimal30s
- Q14Name the part labeled "H." (Hint: it is the green structure)chloroplastcell wallcytoplasmcell membrane30s
- Q15Name the part labeled "N." (Hint: it is the wavy lines inside of the purple structure)nuclear envelopenucleusnucleoluschromatin30s
