Biology Keystone: Anchor 4 Evaluation

Amino acids, sugars, and ions move across the cell membrane. Their movement from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration is accomplished by special proteins in the membrane.

Which of the following terms applies to this type of cell transport?

• active transport

• facilitated diffusion

• osmosis

• transcription

The diagram below shows the basic structure of a cell's plasma membrane. What is the primary function of lipid molecules in the plasma membrane?

• to provide an energy source for most cell activities

  
  

• to provide a substrate for enzyme activity in the cell

  
  

• to provide a place to collect and store waste products within the cell

  
  

• to provide a barrier to the movement of substances in and out of the cell

  
  

What directly supplies the energy needed to actively transport sodium ions across the plasma membrane of a cell?

• ATP

• DNA

• Enzymes

• Lipids

Which of the following is an example of active transport?

• chromosomes migrating during cell division

  
  

• water diffusing throughout the cytoplasm of a cell

  
  

• cilia moving rapidly to propel a single-celled organism through water

  
  

• proteins moving ions from low to high concentration across a cell membrane

  
  

Which of the following is the best example of the human body maintaining homeostasis?

• The heart beats using cardiac muscle.

  
  

• The breathing rate increases during exercise.

  
  

• The nose and ears contain cartilage for flexibility.

The rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus work together in eukaryotic cells. What is one way that the rough endoplasmic reticulum assists the Golgi apparatus?

• It assembles nucleic acids from monomers.

  
  

• It breaks down old, damaged macromolecules.

  
  

• It packages new protein molecules into vesicles.

  
  

• It determines which protein molecules to synthesize.
