Question
Answer
show 1) Control of entry and exit of materials 2) Isolate organelles and enzymes for metabolic reactions 3) Provide an internal transport system 4) Provide surfaces on which processes can occur  
🗑
What is the role of extrinsic (peripheral) proteins in a membrane?   show
🗑
What is the role of intrinsic (integral) proteins in a membrane?   show
🗑
show Fluid - due to the ability of the phospholipids and protein molecules to move relative to each other. The membrane is flexible. Mosaic - due to the varying shape, size and pattern of the proteins in the bilayer.  
🗑
List the roles of phospholipids in cell surface membranes.   show
🗑
show 1) Reduce lateral movement of phospholipids 2) Regulate membrane fluidity depending on temperature 3) Prevent passage of dissolved polar molecules and ions across the membrane  
🗑
List the roles of glycolipids in cell surface membranes.   show
🗑
List the roles of glycoproteins in cell surface membranes.   show
🗑
List the roles of proteins in cell surface membranes.   show
🗑
show Active transport  
🗑
Name of transport processes which do not require energy.   show
🗑
What is diffusion?   show
🗑
show The even distribution of particles which are continuously in motion/changing position.  
🗑
What is facilitated diffusion?   show
🗑
show Channel proteins  
🗑
show Carrier proteins  
🗑
What is osmosis?   show
🗑
What is a solute?   show
🗑
What is a solvent?   show
🗑
show solute + solvent  
🗑
show A solution with more water than solute ie. a higher water potential  
🗑
What is a hypertonic solution?   show
🗑
show A solution with equal concentration of solute and water.  
🗑
T or F. There is always a net movement of water from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution.   show
🗑
What is active transport?   show
🗑
Describe 5 key features of active transport.   show
🗑
show Diffusion and osmosis  
🗑
show Facilitated diffusion  
🗑
show Active transport  
🗑
What is endocytosis?   show
🗑
What is exocytosis?   show
🗑
show 1) Phagocytosis 2) Pinocytosis  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
