100

When a substrate is diffusing across a membrane at an equal rate.

dynamic equilibrium

100

Describe the difference between endocytosis & exocytosis.

endocytosis = bulk entry inside cell

exocytosis = bulk exit from cell

200

What is the main function of the Golgi apparatus?

process, modify, and package proteins & lipids for transport

200

How eukaryotic cells maximize the overall efficiency of reactions and biological processes.

compartmentalization

200

Describes the complex components of a eukaryotic plasma membrane.

Fluid Mosaic Model

200

If a cell with a 10% solute concentration is placed in a solution with a 15% solute concentration, what direction will water move?

OUT of the cell

200

This type of cell has a relatively low surface area to volume ratio.

large cell

300

When a cell is exporting a protein in mass quantities, what 3 organelles would be involved?

rough ER

Golgi body

vesicle

300

Name 3 organelles that are part of the endomembrane system and provide the respective function.

endoplasmic reticulum = 

golgi body = 

vesicles = 

plasma membrane = 

300

A large, nonpolar molecule must enter a cell through...

integral protein

protein channel OR carrier

300

What caused the change between the initial state and the final state in the diagram?

water moved from the right side to the left side of the U-tube because the left side was hypertonic compared to the right side

300

Water moves from areas of _______ water potential, or _______ solute concentration, to areas of _______ water potential, or _______ solute concentration.

high; low; low; high

400

All cells have these structures in common (4).

ribosomes

cell membrane

cytoplasm

DNA and/or RNA

400

DAILY DOUBLE!!!

Some cells are specialized for secreting enzymes. What organelle is most likely in abundance in these cells?

ribosomes

400

What part of the structure of the cell membrane prohibits small ions from traveling through it?

the hydrophobic tails of phospholipids in the bilayer

hydrophobic substances REPEL charged particles

400

Based on the graph, what is the concentration of the substance inside the dialysis bag?

about 0.15M

This organelle would synthesize a protein destined for the cell membrane.

Ribosome on the rough endoplasmic reticulum

500

Compare and contrast the functions of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) within a cell.

RER = protein synthesis

SER = lipid synthesis & detoxification
