question
Which of the following solutes would move the fastest? Albumin Sodium chloride Glucose Urea
answer
sodium chloride (lowest mw)
question
For solutes that move by simple diffusion, which of the following does NOT affect the rate of simple diffusion across a membrane? Check all that apply. the size of the solute the concentration of the solute the potential energy of the solute the membrane pore size
answer
the potential energy of the solute the membrane pore size
question
In this activity, the solutes were transported through the dialysis membrane by _______. simple diffusion active transport osmosis facilitated diffusion
answer
simple diffusion
question
Through which membrane(s) would sodium chloride diffuse? 200 MWCO only 20 MWCO, 50 MWCO, 100 MWCO, and 200 MWCO 100 MWCO and 200 MWCO 50 MWCO, 100 MWCO, and 200 MWCO
answer
50 MWCO, 100 MWCO, and 200 MWCO
question
Which of the following generated osmotic pressure? sodium chloride, glucose and albumin generated osmotic pressure. albumin glucose sodium chloride
answer
sodium chloride, glucose and albumin generated osmotic pressure.
question
Which of the following would result in NO change in osmotic pressure across a membrane? Water is moving with its concentration gradient. The solutes can diffuse through the pores and the concentration of solutes is the same on both sides of the membrane. The solutes can diffuse through the pores. The concentration of solutes is the same on both sides of the membrane.
answer
The solutes can diffuse through the pores and the concentration of solutes is the same on both sides of the membrane.
question
With the experimental conditions set at 10 mM glucose and 9 mM albumin, and the 200 MWCO membrane in place, which of the following is true? The net movement of water is toward the glucose. The net movement of water is away from the albumin. Albumin and glucose diffuse through the membrane. The net movement of water is toward the albumin.
answer
The net movement of water is toward the albumin.
question
A cell is immersed in a beaker of solution. The cell membrane is permeable to water but impermeable to solutes. If the intracellular concentration is 10 mM and the solution is 20 mM, which of the following is true? The net movement of water is into the cell. The solution is hypotonic. The cell will shrink. There is no net change in the movement of water into the cell.
answer
The cell will shrink.
question
Which of the following resulted in an increase in the filtration rate? increasing the pressure above the beaker Both increasing the pore size and increasing the pressure above the beaker are correct. increasing the pore size increasing the concentration of the solutes Both increasing the pressure above the beaker and increasing the concentration of solutes are correct.
answer
Both increasing the pore size and increasing the pressure above the beaker are correct.
question
Which solute did NOT appear in the filtrate using the 200 MWCO membrane? Glucose, charcoal, sodium chloride and urea appeared in the filtrate. urea sodium chloride charcoal glucose
answer
charcoal
question
Which of the following was NOT observed during this activity? Some solutes were too large to pass through the membrane. The 200 MWCO membrane was the largest pore size used. A residue of solutes remained on the membrane after filtration. Increasing the rate of filtration increased the concentration of solutes in the filtrate.
answer
Increasing the rate of filtration increased the concentration of solutes in the filtrate.
question
Increasing the pressure above the beaker is analogous to _______. an increase in blood pressure a decrease in blood volume an increase in heart rate an increase in solutes found in the blood
answer
an increase in blood pressure
question
The sodium-potassium pump can transport _______. sodium even if potassium is not available and potassium even if sodium is not available sodium even if potassium is not available potassium even if sodium is not available only if sodium and potassium are available
answer
only if sodium and potassium are available
question
Which of the following increased the rate of sodium-potassium transport? increasing the amount of ATP increasing the number of membrane pumps adding glucose to the right beaker decreasing the amount of ATP
answer
increasing the number of membrane pumps
question
Which of the following describes the movement of ions by the sodium-potassium pump? Potassium is moved out of the cell. Potassium is moved out of the cell and sodium is moved into the cell. Potassium is moved into the cell. Sodium is moved into the cell
answer
Potassium is moved into the cell.
question
What is the type of transport supplied by the glucose carriers in the activity? active transport coupled transport endocytosis facilitated diffusion exocytosis
answer
facilitated diffusion
