have receptors that recognize and bind the hormone molecule.

Hormones are chemical substances produced in one organ that are released into the bloodstream and affect the function of a target organ. For the target organ to respond to a particular hormone, it must _____.

(1) The new solute will diffuse from left to right to establish equilibrium. (2) The water level on the right will fall.

Imagine a beaker with solutions separated by a lipid bilayer (like what is shown in Figure 6.12, step 3). Predict what will happen after addition of a new solute to the solution on the left side, if the new solute (1) crosses the lipid bilayer readily or (2) is incapable of crossing it.

ribosomes

In a bacterium, where are proteins synthesized?

Ions cannot cross planar bilayers

In an experiment involving planar (flat) bilayers, a solution of table salt (sodium and chloride ions in water) is added on the left side of the membrane while pure water is added on the right side.
