true

33
Q

what is the function of a carrier protien

A

it help carry large molecules across the membrane

34
Q

how does a carrier protien work

A

it interacts with a molecule, protien changes shape around the molecule, and it is released

35
Q

what is an example of a molecule that uses a carrier protien

A

glucose

36
Q

what is the function of a channel protien

A

it allows a molecule or ion to freely cross the membrane

37
Q

how does a channel protien work

A

it can be gated or open

38
Q

ex of a molecule that needs a channel protien

A

Na, Cl, Ca

39
Q

what are the four factors that influence the rate of diffusion

A

temp, pressure, molecule size, electrical currents

40
Q

osmosis

A

the movement of water from high to low concentration

41
Q

why is osmosis important in a cell

A

maintains homeostasis

42
Q

what will happen to a cell in an isotonic solution

A

it stays the same

43
Q

isotonic solution

A

the concentration of a solute is equal inside and outside of the cell

44
Q

hypertonic solution

A

concentration of the solute is higher in the solution than in the cell

45
Q

what happens to the cell in a hypertonic solution

A

the cell shrinks

46
Q

what is plasmolysis

A

the shrinking of the cytoplasm

47
Q

what happens to an animal cell during plasmolysis

A

the whole cell shrinks

48
Q

what happens to a plant cell during plasmolysis

A

the central vacuole shrinks

49
Q

hypotonic solution

A

the concentration of the solute is lower in the solution of the cell

50
Q

what happens to the cell in a hypotonic solution

A

water rushes into the cell

51
Q

what is cytolysis

A

bursting of the cell

52
Q

does turgor pressure happen in a plant or animal cell

A

plant

53
Q

what is turgor pressure

A

the central vacuole is full and it pushes on the cell wall

54
Q

true or false: cytolysis only happens in animal cells

A

true

55
Q

which way do particles move during active transport

A

low to high concentartion

56
Q

does active transport require ATP

A

yes

57
Q

what are the 2 ways to transport using active transport

A

molecular and bulk
