How do lipids with hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions behave in an aqueous environment?
Like cell membranes, many fats and oils are made up in part of fatty acids. Most animal fats (like butter) are solid at room temperature, whereas plant fats (like canola oil) tend to be liquid. Can you predict which types of fat contain saturated fatty acids, and which type contain unsaturated fatty acids?
What are two ways proteins associate with membranes?
What are roles of lipids and proteins in maintaining the selective permeability of membranes?
A container is divided into two compartments by membrane that is fully permeable to water and small ions. Water is added to one side of the membrane (side A) and a 5% solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) is added to the other side (side B). In which direction will water molecules move? In which direction will sodium and chloride ions move?
What is the difference between passive and active transport?
Compare the organization, degree of compartmentalization, and size of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
What are the names and functions of the major organelles of the endomembrane system of eukaryotic cells?
How does a protein end up free in the cytosol, embedded in the plasma membrane, or secreted from the cell?
Are mitochondria present in animal cells, plant cells or both?
