18
Q

Particle Model of Matter

A

All matter = particles different sizes and shapes
Particles in constant random motion
Particles attract - form bonds of varying strengths
Matter = mainly empty space

19
Q

Brownion motion

A

random motion of particles

concluded by Robert Brown

20
Q

Might find other substance particles in spaces between articles (T/F)

A

T

21
Q

Factors affecting rate of diffusion

A

agitation
temp
molecule size

22
Q

solutes dissolve from low to high concentration (T/F) + why

A

F
high to low
due to random motion of particles

23
Q

Molecules travel away from concentrated area (T/F)

A

T

24
Q

selectively permeable membrane (spm)

A

barrier allowing only certain solutes through

25
Q

solutes allowed through spm based on

A

size
shape
electrical charge
lipid solubility

26
Q

electrical charge def in terms of plasma membrane

A

membrane is polar

27
Q

lipid solubility info

A

liver and kidneys may need to work first

28
Q

diffusion of water across membrane

passive process

A

osmosis

29
Q

water moves from high to low in osmosis (T/F)

A

T

30
Q

does a high solute concentration correspond to low water concentration

A

yes

less room for water due to solute taking up much space

31
Q

Hypertonic

A

higher solute concentration when compared to another solution

32
Q

Hypotonic

A

lower solute concentration when compared to another solution

33
Q

Isotonic

A

two solutions have same solute concentration

34
Q

tonicity

A

whether solution hypersonic/hypotonic/isotonic

35
Q

to reduce the dependence on diffusion, multicellular organisms have

A

developed other internal transport systems

36
Q

larger cells are more likely to survive than smaller cells. (T/F)

A

F

37
Q

more wastes must leave in larger cell (T/F)

A

T

38
Q

more molecules must move through the membrane in larger cell (T/F)

A

T

39
Q

distances from the cell membrane to various organelles greater in smaller cell (T/F)

A

F

40
Q

when cell in isotonic solution, individual water molecules …

A

can move back and forth across the cell membrane

41
Q

small substances soluble in lipids can pass through the cell membrane by

A

diffusion

42
Q

factor determining whether movement across cell membrane is active/passive transport

A

energy use
