A molecule is found to be able to diffuse across a membrane. Which of the following characteristics would best describe this molecule? Question options: hydrophobic negatively charged polar neutral hydrophilic
Question 1 (1 point) Of the following, which type of molecule moves directly across a membrane at the slowest rate? Large polar molecules, such as glucose Proteins and other macromolecules Small, uncharged polar molecules, such as water lons, such as chloride (CI)
Which of the following molecules may diffuse freely through a phospholipid bilayer? please select two answers- -asparagine, an amino acid with a large, hydrophilic side chain -alanine, an amino acid with a small, hydrophobic side-chain -testosterone, a steroid hormone -fructose, a monosaccharide molecular oxygen (O2)
Question 11 (1 point) of the following, which type of molecule moves directly across a membrane most easily? Large polar molecules, such as glucose Small, uncharged non-polar molecules such as 02. lons, such as chloride (CI) Proteins and other macromolecules
Question 1 Which of the following are likely to diffuse through the plasma membrane? glucose K+ Cl- H20 Na+ CO2 02 lipid Question 4 Which is(are) true about transport across the membrane? Channels can perform either active or passive transport Charged molecules move according to their electrochemical gradients Movement of an ion down its gradient requires energy Transporters are faster but less selective than channels Question 6 In the coupled transport of Na+ and glucose, the transporter O is an...
Figure 1 represents a plasma membrane and molecules present on either side. Figure 1. A model of a plasma membrane demonstrating selective permeability (a) Describe the biological need for cells to be surrounded by a membrane that is selectively permeable for different materials. (b) Explain how the model shows selective permeability of the membrane to specific ions. (c) Describe the characteristics of the phospholipid bilayer that permit small hydrophobic lipid molecules to pass directly across the membrane. (d)...
can someone explain what I did wrong? Partial Question 6 0.2/1 pts Rank the following types of molecules on the rate at which they will cross a lipid bilayer (1 - Fastest....... 5 - Not at all) lons or charged molecules Large non polar molecules Large polar molecules Small non polar molecules Small polar molecules
How do FAs of different carbon lengths cross into the mitochondrial matrix for oxidation? 1) Small FAs of 10 carbons or fewer can freely diffuse through the membrane. 2) Large FAs are cleaved into two smaller units that are actively transported across the membrane. 3) A membrane-bound transferase catalyzes the conversion of long-chain FAs to FA-carnitine esters, which are transported across the membrane via a specific carrier. 4) The breakdown of large FAs starts outside the matrix, allowing for smaller...
Which of the following molecules would be most likely to cross the cell membrane without assistance from embedded proteins? potassium ion (K+) sodium ion (Na+) Vitamin D. a fat soluble vitamin glucose
1. How does the cell membrane affect homeostasis (i.e., actively maintaining a stable internal environment) in the cell? (select ALL accurate statements) A) the cell membrane prevents charged ions, and (most) large, polar molecules from entering B) the cell membrane allows some molecules to enter freely C) the cell membrane prevents nonpolar molecules from entering the cell D) the cell membrane is a selective barrier 2. The cell plasma membrane has integral and peripheral proteins in the phospholipid bilayer. These...
