the blue segments of this diagram are used for all of the following (select all that apply)

• facilitated diffusion

• active transport

• simple diffusion

• osmosis

the sodium-potassium pumps in animal cells pump potassium into the cell from an area of low concentration to an area of higher concentration. this is an example of

• active transport

• facilitated diffusion

• simple diffusion

• osmosis

the environment that the middle cell is in would be classified as

• hypertonic

• hypotonic

• isotonic

• all of these

• none of these

if a cell with 20% sodium is placed into a solution with 25% sodium. the solution is said to be ____________. (hint: which direction is the water going to move)

• hypertonic

• hypotonic

• isotonic

• impossible to tell

the fatty acid tails that make up the interior of the cell membrane are hydrophobic because

• the bonds are non-polar so they won't be attracted to the polar water molecules

• the bonds are polar so they won't be attracted to the non-polar water molecules
