Understand Diffusion
One gram of sodium chloride will take longer to dissolve in a solution of 2 M
glucose than in a solution of pure water. What is the most reasonable explanation
for this observation?
Multiple Choice
O
O
O
sodium chloride will form stronger ionic contacts in 2 M
glucose than in water, slowing its rate of dissolution and
diffusion
sodium chloride is more hydrophobic in a glucose solution
than it is in water, reducing its solubility and diffusion
sodium chloride will encounter a greater frequency of
collisions in a 2 M glucose solution than in water, slowing
its diffusion
glucose will form a hydration shell around sodium chloride,
slowing its interactions with water and therefore reducing
its solubility

10. What appears to be the effect of inserting a protein channel into the membrane on the
movement of molecules across the membrane?
11. Is the inner surface (facing the channel) of the embedded protein likely to be polar or nonpolar
in the examples shown in Model 4? Is the exterior surface (facing the fatty acid chains of the
phospholipids) of the embedded protein likely to be polar or nonpolar? Explain your reasoning.
When a membrane protein assists in the passive transport of molecules across a barrier in the
direction down their concentration gradient (from high concentration to low concentration) it is
called facilitated diffusion. Transport proteins may also be involved in active transport where the
cell uses energy from…

(a) Which processes are energy dependent? (b) Which processes need some kind of carrier protein(s)? (c) Which processes can be saturated by substrate? (d) Which processes can establish a concentration gradient? (e) How much energy does it take to transport an uncharged substrate in, if its starting inside concentration is 10-fold greater than outside?arrow_forwardFor the following scenarios, determine whether the molecules in the scenario are moving by simple diffusion (S), osmosis (0), facilitated diffusion (F), or active transport (A). a)For water to travel across the cell membrane at a substantial rate, the water molecules travel through protein channels known as aquaporins b)While water molecules are polar, they are also very small. Some water molecules are able to squeeze directly through the phospholipid bilayer due to their small size.

The rate of transport of each solute into cells is represented in the graph. = Solute A = Solute B Solute Concentration Which of the following best explains the greater rate of transport for solute A than for solute B at higher solute concentrations? Solute A is being transported by simple diffusion, which does not rely on membrane proteins to control the rate of transport. A Solute A is being transported by active transport, which uses ATP and has higher rates of transport than passive transport. B Solute A is being transported by facilitated diffusion, which uses membrane proteins to increase the rate of transport. Submit !!

The membrane potential is -0.05 V and the temperature is 303.06 K. K+ (inside cell) → K* (outside cell)arrow_forwardFor this practice problem, would the answer be c)NaCl?

However, NaCl dissociates into ions and cannot readily use diffusion?arrow_forwardQ. 1 (i) What is meant by Diffusion as applied in biological membrane.

O Transport proteins provide the energy for diffusion of the solute. O Transport proteins provide a low-resistance channel for water molecules to cross the membrane. O Transport proteins provide a protein site for ATP hydrolysis, which facilitates the movement of a solute across a membrane. Transport proteins organize the phospholipids to allow the solute to cross the membrane.arrow_forwardExplain why, when a concentration gradient exists on two sides of membrane, that the spontaneous movement of solute molecules is from areas of high concentration towards low concentration.
