Active and passive transport of solutes across a membrane typically differ in which of the following ways?

Active transport always involves the utilization of cellular energy, whereas passive transport does not require cellular energy.

Which of the following statements correctly describes osmosis?

In osmosis, water moves across a membrane from areas of lower solute concentration to areas of higher solute concentration

What will happen to a red blood cell (RBC), which has an internal ion content of about 0.9%, if it is placed into a beaker of pure water?

The cell would swell because the water in the beaker is hypotonic relative to the cytoplasm of the RBC.

Cell membranes have distinct inside and outside faces. Which of the following statements is the most likely explanation for the membrane's asymmetrical nature?

The two sides of a cell membrane face different environments and carry out different functions.

Which of the following statements about a typical plasma membrane is correct?

The two sides of the plasma membrane have different lipid and protein composition.

In facilitated diffusion, what is the role of the transport protein?

Transport proteins provide a hydrophilic route for the solute to cross the membrane.

Which of the following molecular movements is due to diffusion or osmosis?

When a plant cell is placed in concentrated salt water, water moves out of the cell.

The force driving simple diffusion is ________, while the energy source for active transport is ________.

a concentration gradient; ATP hydrolysis

For a protein to be an integral membrane protein, it would have to be _____.

amphipathic, with at least one hydrophobic region

Which of the following molecules dramatically increases the rate of diffusion of water across cell membranes?

aquaporins

The movement of glucose into a cell against a concentration gradient is most likely to be accomplished by which of the following?

cotransport of the glucose with a proton or sodium ion that was pumped across the membrane using the energy of ATP hydrolysis

Identify Structure A

glycoprotein

Identify Structure D

phospholipid bilayer of membrane

What is the function of Structure E

stabilization of the phospholipids
