Which of the folowing statements most accurately describes the relationship between the structure and the function of cell membranes?

Cell membranes are made up of lipid bilayers that provide flexibility and form a strong barrier between a cell and its surroundings.

You will NOT find a cell wall in which of these kinds of organisms?

animals

During diffusion, when the concentration of molecules on both sides of a membrane is the same, the molecules will

continue to move across the membrane in both directions.

The cell membrane contains channels and pumps that help move materials form one side to the other. What are these channels and pumps made of?

proteins

Which of the following is a function of the cell membrane?

regulates the movement of materials into and out of the cell

Which structure makes proteins using coded instructions that come from the nucleus?

ribosome

Which of the following is a function of the nucleus?

stores DNA

Plasma membranes are selectively permeable.This means that

the plasma membrane allows some substances to enter or leave a cell more easily than others.

An animall cell that is surrounded by fresh water will burst because the osmotic pressure causes

water move into the cell

Which term describes the relativley constant internal physial conditions of an organism?

cell specialization

Which organelle would you expect to find in plant cells but not animal cells?

cholorplasts

The fluid mosaic model describes the plasma membrane as consisting of

diverse proteins embedded with cholestrol sandwiched between them.

Which organelle breaks down organelles that are no longer useful?

lysosomes

Which organelle converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use (cellular respiration)?

mitochondria
