| 4920287229 | Describe the fluidity of the components of a cell membrane and explain how membrane fluidity is influenced by temperature and membrane composition. | -membranes must be fluid to work properly -saturated fats make it stiff because they are solid at room temperature -unsaturated fats help it bend, allowing the cell to work better since the fats are liquid at room temperature -the cell membrane remains fluid as temperature increases and becomes solid as temperature decreases | 27 | |
| 4920287230 | Define diffusion. Explain why diffusion is a passive and spontaneous process. | -diffusion is the movement of a substance across a concentration gradient due to random motion -it is spontaneous because one solute is unaffected by the concentration gradient of other solutes -it is passive because the cell does not expend energy when substances diffuse down their concentration gradient | 28 | |
| 4920287231 | Distinguish between exocytosis and receptor mediated endocytosis. | -exocytosis: secretion of molecules by the fusion of vesicles with the plasma membrane -endocytosis: taking in of molecules by forming new vesicles from the plasma membrane -receptor mediated endocytosis: taking in of cholesterol for synthesis of membranes | 29 | |

| 4920287235 | Dialysis Lab | -purpose: to understand the effect of solute concentration on the water potential in plant cells -as molarity of solution increases, more water diffuses into the solution and the percent change in mass increases -we calculate percent change in mass rather than simply the change in mass because it is much easier to compare the proportion of change when it is in percent form. Looking at the difference in mass alone does not allow us to compare the proportion of change because the initial mass and the final mass may be different. | 31 | |
| 4920287236 | Potato Lab | -purpose: to determine the molarity and water potential of potatoes by measuring the percent change in mass of the potato -as molarity of solution increased, the percent change in mass of the potato decreased because water diffused out -the molarity of the potato is about .25 M | 32 | |
| 4920287238 | Predict the effect that lowering the temperature would have on enzyme activity. | -lowering the temperature on the experiment would cause the rate of reaction to decrease because the system will no longer be in the optimal temperature -at higher temperatures, there are more molecular collisions and therefore more enzymatic reactions -decreasing the temperature will decrease the number of molecular collisions and therefore there will be fewer enzymatic reactions | 33 | |
