17
Q

Where in the periodic table of elements are the elements with the largest atomic radii located?

A

Bottom-left corner

Atomic radii tend to increase down a group and decrease across a period in the periodic table.

18
Q

True or False: Elements with the largest atomic radii are found in the upper-right corner of the periodic table.

A

False

The largest atomic radii are located in the bottom-left corner of the periodic table.

19
Q

Fill in the blank: Elements with the largest atomic radii are typically located in the _______.

A

Bottom-left corner

This is due to the increasing number of electron shells as you move down the groups.

20
Q

What is formed when the plasma membrane surrounds a particle outside of the cell?

A

Endocytic vesicles

Endocytic vesicles are involved in the process of endocytosis, where the cell engulfs external particles.

21
Q

Which structures are NOT formed when the plasma membrane surrounds a particle?

A

Golgi bodies, Rough endoplasmic reticulum, Secretory vesicles

Golgi bodies, rough endoplasmic reticulum, and secretory vesicles play different roles in the cell’s functions.

22
Q

True or False: The rough endoplasmic reticulum is formed when the plasma membrane surrounds a particle.

A

False

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein synthesis, not in the engulfing process.

23
Q

Fill in the blank: The process where the plasma membrane engulfs particles is called _______.

A

endocytosis

Endocytosis is crucial for nutrient uptake and cellular signaling.
