BIO202 FINAL Flashcards
Which of the following statements ARE true about active transport? (select all that apply)
the process requires ATP , the process requires a membrane protein , molecules move against the gradient -3 ONLY
Which of the following statements ARE true about facilitated diffusion?(select all that apply)
molecules move from high concentration to low , process requires a membrane protein - ONLY 2
Gasseous molecules such as oxygen and carbon dioxide are neutrally charged and very small which allows them to be transported across membranes by…
simple diffusion
Water molecules travel through cell membranes from areas of —–LOW—————- solute concentration to areas of —–high—- solute concentration in a process called ——–OSMOSIS
LOW, HIGH, OSMOSIS
What role (function) does calcium have within a muscle fiber?
trigger contraction by causing the formation of cross bridges
Which of the following are regulatory proteins that allow a muscle fiber to contract when calcium is present? (select all that apply)
tropomyosin , TROPONIN
An autorhythmic muscle type containing mononucleated and striated muscle fibers.
cardiac muscle
This type of muscle is found in the lining of the stomach as well as the walls of arteries.
SMOOTH
A muscle type that functions to transport substances through hollow viscera (organs).
SMOOTH
Voluntary, striated and multinucleated muscle.
SKELETAL
During this phase of an action potential, potassium ions exit the cell through voltage gated potassium channels.
REPOLARIZATION
A resting muscle fiber or neuron has an internal charge that is——-NEGATIVE——–compared to the extracellular environment. This resting membrane charge is maintained by the ——-SODIUM/POTASSIUM PUMP
NEGATIVE, SODIUM, POTASSIUM PUMP
When a muscle fiber is at resting membrane potential there is a(an)——lower—— concentration of sodium inside the cell compared to outside the cell and a(an) ———higher—— concentration of potassium inside the cell compared to outside.
LOWER, HIGHER
