Why is drinking sea water harmful to humans?

It causes cells to shrink and leads to dehydration.

It causes cells to swell and burst.

What is the purpose of adding shampoo during the DNA extraction process from a banana?

To dissolve the cell and nuclear membranes.

To separate the DNA from proteins.

What is the main function of the cell membrane in regulating substances entering and exiting a cell?

Maintaining selective permeability.

Providing structural support to the cell.

Facilitating rapid cell division.

In the Fluid Mosaic Model of the cell membrane, what does the term "fluid" refer to?

The ability of components like phospholipids and proteins to move.

The watery environment inside the cell.

The presence of water channels within the membrane.

The liquid state of the cell's cytoplasm.

What is a key role of cholesterol within the cell membrane?

To connect phospholipids and prevent them from drifting too quickly or getting too close.

To act as a transport channel for large molecules.

To provide energy for membrane functions.

To serve as a receptor for signaling molecules.

What is the primary function of proteins embedded within the cell membrane?

To facilitate the movement of large or charged molecules across the membrane

To store genetic information for the cell

To provide energy for cellular processes

To synthesize new phospholipids for membrane repair

How does water, a polar molecule, primarily move across the cell membrane?

Via facilitated diffusion through specialized protein channels called aquaporins

Through simple diffusion directly across the lipid bilayer

By active transport, requiring ATP

It cannot move across the cell membrane
