100

ATP is involved in _____ active transport

What is direct active transport?

100

____ concentrations of ions diffuse to _____ concentration of ions

Higher, lower

100

One type solute moves through a channel

What is a uniport?

100

Osmosis is the process of ____ moving across a membrane

What is water?

100

Can ADP and Pi (phosphate), the building blocks of ATP be used to run active transport?

No, because the molecule has to be in its ATP form to be used for active transport

200

The method of active transport for the sucrose pump

What is indirect active transport?
200

What protein allows for diffusion of ions?

Channel protein

200

Two types of solutes move through a channel in unison

What is a symport?

200

If a cell is in a hypotonic environment water will flow from ___ to ___

Outside the cell to inside the cell

200

____ and ____ can move across a lipid membrane with no channels

Small non-polar molecules and small uncharged polar molecules

300

If a hydrogen (H+) gradient is present, but no ATP. Will a sucrose transporter work?

Yes it will

300

What protein allows for the transport of glucose?

Carrier protein

300

Two types of solutes move through a channel in opposite directions of each other

What is an antiport

300

I place a cell in an isotonic environment ____ will happen

What is nothing?

300

The electron transport chain uses secondary active transport to make ATP. Based on what you know, how is the mitochondria able to get the energy to make ATP?

It uses a hydrogen gradient.

400

Let's say we have a Na K pump. ATP is present but no K is present. What would happen?

Pump wouldn't go

400

If I have a voltage-gated channel with no voltage, will ions diffuse?

No.

400

The H+-Sucrose transporter is an example of a

What is a symport?

400

A shriveled cell would symbolize a ____ environment

What is hypertonic?

400

If I put a plant cell into a pure water solution will it burst?

No, the cell wall will cause the cell to not burst. This is called turgidity.

500

If I mutate a H+ pump will the sucrose transporter work?

Yes, as long as the hydrogen gradient is there, once that gradient goes away then the sucrose transporter will stop.

500

If I have 5M sodium (Na+) on the outside of the cell, and 3M on the inside of the cell. Assuming a sodium channel is present what is the equilibrium concentration?

4M Na+

500

Does bulk transport require a channel?

No, because it uses the cellular membrane, not a channel.

500

Osmosis is a ___ process compared to facilitated diffusion

What is slow?

500

If I have a potassium channel present (K+), and I add in another monovalent atom (Rubidium Rb) for example. Will rubidium travel through the channel since it is a monovalent atom?

No, because rubidium to too big to fit in the channel.
