Module 6 - Transport Mechanism and Cell Membrane

• It gives the cell its food and it removes the waste from the cell.

• The main concern is the regulation, the things that enter or exit on the cell.

• Transport Mechanism

• Cell Membrane

• Function of the Cell Membrane

• Passive Transport

It is the amount of solute in a solution.

• Concentration

• Solute

• Solution

• Concentration Gradient

The dissolved substance in a solution.

• Concentration

• Solute

• Solution

• Concentration Gradient

A mixture in which two or more substances are mixed evenly.

• Concentration

• Solute

• Solution

• Concentration Gradient

It is the gradual difference in the concentration of solutes in a solution between two regions.

• Concentration

• Solute

• Solution

• Concentration Gradient

All cells have a cell membrane made of proteins and lipids.

• True

• False

A mosaic of lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates are embedded in a fluid bilayer of phospholipids.

• True

• False

What do you call the structure on the cell membrane or plasma membrane?

• Phospholipid Bilayer

• Plasma Mebrane

• Cell Wall

• Carbohydrate

This separates the components of a cell from its environment and its surrounds the cell. Boundary that separates the living cell from its nonliving surroundings.

• Phospholipid Bilayer

• Plasma Membrane / Cell Membrane

• Cell Wall

• Carbohydrate

How large is the Phospholipid?

• 10 nanometer thick

• 8 nanometer thick

• 9 nanometer thick

• 12 nanometer thick
