- Q 1/7Score 0The picture shows a contractile vacuole of a unicellular freshwater organism. The contractile vacuole regulates the flow of water into and out of the cell in an aquatic environment. What conditions cause the contractile vacuole to fill with water?29The temperature of water in the vacuole is lower than the temperature of its environmentThe concentration of water inside the cell is the same as the concentration outside the cellThe concentration of water is greater outside the cell than inside the cellThe temperature of water in the vacuole is higher than the temperature of its environment

- Q1The picture shows a contractile vacuole of a unicellular freshwater organism. The contractile vacuole regulates the flow of water into and out of the cell in an aquatic environment. What conditions cause the contractile vacuole to fill with water?The temperature of water in the vacuole is lower than the temperature of its environmentThe concentration of water inside the cell is the same as the concentration outside the cellThe concentration of water is greater outside the cell than inside the cellThe temperature of water in the vacuole is higher than the temperature of its environment30sB.4.B: Cellular Processes
- Q2This diagram shows cellular activity across a cell membrane. Which two processes does this diagram most directly model?Homeostasis and transport of moleculesTransport of molecules and energy conversionsEnergy conversions and synthesis of new moleculesSynthesis of new molecules and homeostasis30sB.4.B: Cellular Processes
- Q3Some students used vinegar to dissolve away the shells of three eggs and used these eggs as models of human red blood cells. The students observed the changes in the eggs when they were placed in different solutions. Which statement best describes the role of the cell membrane in this model?The cell membrane removes solutes from the environmentThe cell membrane allows water to enter and leave the cellThe cell membrane is an impermeable barrier that prevents water from entering the cellThe cell membrane allows solutes to enter the cell, which causes the cell to shrink30sB.4.B: Cellular Processes
- Q4Which group of organelles is directly responsible for the production of new molecules within a cell?The endoplasmic reticulum, plastids, and vacuolesGolgi apparatuses, lysosomes, and the plasma membraneThe nucleolus, vacuoles, and ribosomesRibosomes, the endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatuses30sB.4.B: Cellular Processes
- Q5Which cellular process takes place in the ribosomes that are bound to the endoplasmic reticulum?The synthesis of new proteinsThe conversion of radiant energy to glucoseThe replication of nucleic acidsThe breakdown of waste material30sB.4.B: Cellular Processes
- Q6The diagram illustrates the activity of vesicles during a cellular process. Which statement best explains the function of the vesicles?Transporting packaged molecules from the Golgi apparatus to be released out of the cellExtracting portions of the Golgi apparatus to be regenerated for growth within the cellExchanging genetic information between the Golgi apparatuses of separate cellsDelivering packaged materials to the Golgi apparatus for protein synthesis60sB.4.B: Cellular Processes
- Q7When mammals get an infection, their internal body temperature often rises 2 to 3 degrees Celsius. The body gets the energy it needs to react to an infection by -decreasing the rate of glucose movement into the cellincreasing the rate of cellular divisionincreasing the rate of cellular respiration in mitochondriadecreasing the rate at which carbon dioxide is removed from the cell60sB.4.B: Cellular Processes
