AP BIOLOGY UNIT 2 TEST
These vacuoles are found in many mature plant cells and they
hold organic compounds and water - ANS -Central
What are the 3 main types of membrane receptors? - ANS -G-
protein linked, tyrosine kinases, ion channel
Oxidative organelles - ANS -Peroxisomes
What happens when you put a red blood cell in pure water
(hypotonic solution)? Why? - ANS -The cell will burst because
water rushes into the cell.
The ________ is continuous with the nuclear membrane - ANS -
ER membrane
, Which part of the phospholipid bilayer is considered
hydrophobic? - ANS -Fatty acid tail
Which part of the phospholipid bilayer is considered
hydrophilic? - ANS -Phosphate head
How does the membrane become semipermeable to polar
molecules? - ANS -Protein channels
_______ is a water channel in bacteria. - ANS -Aquaporin
This is the movement of molecules from a HIGH concentration
to a LOW concentration. What type of transport is this? - ANS -
Diffusion, passive transport
What is osmosis? - ANS -Diffusion of water across a semi
permeable membrane
What does hypertonic mean? - ANS -More solute, less water
What does hypotonic mean? - ANS -Less solute, more water
