Preview:


What is called when a cell has an even amount of water movement in and out of the cell.

A. hypertonic

B. isotonic

C. hypotonic


The cell membrane is an important factor for the cell to maintain homeostasis. This is due to its specific function the cell membrane does. Describe the function of the cell membrane.

A. The main function of the cell membrane is to make proteins.

B. The main function of the cell membrane is to provide structure to the cell by using microtubules, actin filaments, and intermediate filaments.

C. The main function of the cell membrane is to store the DNA and protect it.

D. The main function of the cell membrane is to regulate the movement of substances in and out of the cell. Either through active transport or passive transport.



Scientist drop sugar into a water solution. Overtime the sugar diffuse in the evenly in the water solution. Why did this happen and what type of transport is this?

A. This happens because when sugar molecules are in low concentration they move into a high concentration. This is an example of active transport.

B. This happens because when sugar molecules are in low concentration they move into a high concentration. This is an example of passive transport.

C. This happens because when sugar molecules are in a high concentration they move into a low concentration. This is an example of active transport.

D. This happens because when sugar molecules are in a high concentration they move into a low concentration. This is an example of passive transport.


Name one type of facilitated diffusions that cells.

A. Exocytosis

B. Channel-mediated diffusion

C. Osmosis

D. Endocytosis


The cell is seen having trouble with cell to cell recognition . Scientists think it may be due to a part of the cell membrane not properly functioning. What part of the cell membrane is not working correctly.

A. integral proteins

B. carbohydrates

C. plasmodesmata

D. Peripheral proteins


Scientists think it due to it energy making organelle not functioning properly. What will happen if the cell is not able to create the energy overtime?

A. The cell will die due to the cell’s lack of macromolecules since they need energy to be transported into the cell.

B. The cell will not be affected in the rate molecules needed in the cell without energy.

C. The cell will have a increased rate of molecules needed in the cell without energ.

D. The cell will prosper under this condition.


A cell is removing large amounts of substances out of the cell through a transport vesicle. It uses energy for it. What type of transport is this?

A. Exocytosis

B. Osmosis

C. Endocytosis

D. Passive Transport


A cell membrane is usually able to maintain fluidity even in cold temperature. Scientists found an animal cell that becomes solid when they expose it to cold temperatures. Identify what part of the cell membrane is not properly working in the animal cell.

A. Intergral proteins

B. Cholesterol

C. Carbohydrates

D. Steriods


A cell enters a sucrose solution with a concentration of .10 M. The cell’s sucrose concentration is .5 M. What type of tonicity is the cell compared to the solution?

A. Hypotonc

B. Hypertonic

C. Isotonic



The picture shows a solution of sugar and water in a beaker. The barrier acts like a semiperamable membrane. The semipermeable membrane only allows water to pass through and not sugar. Which side of the beaker will the water move into.

A. The left side

B. The right side


Hole like structures in the cell wall filled with cytosol that connect adjacent cells & allows communication between cells.

A. phospholipids

B. plasmodesmata

C. protein pumps

D. protein channels



What type of carbohydrate is in this image.

A. Strach

B. Glycoprotein

C. Cellulso

D. Glycolipid


A cell is trying to move in a charged large molecule through the cell. What type of transport is needed to transport the molecule into the cell?

A. Passive transport

B. Active transport


A cell is engulfing large amounts of substances through vesicles. It uses energy for it can transport it. What type of transport is this.

A. Osmosis

B. Pinocytosis

C. Endocytosis

D. Exocytosis


A plant cell with a sucrose concentration of .9 M of sucrose is put into an extracellular fluid with a sucrose concentration of .4 M. What is the tonicity of the solution to the cell?

A. Hypertonic

B. Isotonic

C. Hypotonic
