8-3 Mechanisms of Transport. For each of the following statements, answer with a D if the statement is true of simple diffusion,

with an F if it is true of facilitated diffusion, and with an A if it is true of active transport. Any, all, or none (N) of the choices may be appropriate for a given statement. (a) Requires the presence of an integral membrane protein (b) Solutes move down their free energy gradient in the direction of thermodynamic equilibrium (c) Is not subject to saturation (d) Requires the hydrolysis of ATP (e) Is a way of establishing a difference in the concentration gradient of solutes across a membrane (f) Applies only to small, nonpolar solutes (g) Applies only to ions (h) Transport can occur in either direction across the membrane, depending on the prevailing concentration gradient (i) Has a positive G (j) Usually has intrinsic directionality

Answer:

(a) Requires the presence of an integral membrane protein -F

(b) Solutes move down their free energy gradient in the direction of thermodynamic equilibrium - N

(c) Is not subject to saturation - N

(d) Requires the hydrolysis of

ATP - A except secondary active transport

(e) Is a way of establishing a difference in the concentration gradient of solutes across a membrane - D

(f) Applies only to small, nonpolar solutes - D

(g) Applies only to ions - A

(h) Transport can occur in either direction across the membrane, depending on the prevailing concentration gradient - D

(i) Has a positive G(Gradient) - D

(j) Usually has intrinsic directionality

Explanation:

Simple Diffusion is the movement of solutes from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane.

When then is through a transmenbrane integral protein, it is a facilitated diffusion

Active transport uses chemicals (e.g ATP) to move ions against the concentration gradient (Lower to Higher concentration).

They are two types(Primary and Secondary Active transport). Secondary active transport do not require ATP

Which of the following might you use to help you make observations?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Touching, Smelling.

Explanation:

Touching will be useful to detect stimuli like coldness and hotness.

Smelling on the other hand will help to make observations on smell and change in smell. These two are among the five senses that we use to make observations as we record what we see, hear, touch and feel, smell and taste.

The parent cell that enters meiosis is diploid, whereas the four daughter cells that result are haploid.
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

option d

Explanation:

Meiosis stage was formerly called the reduction stage involving two divisions; meiosis I and II. After the first stage of meiosis, the ploidy level of each of the daughter cell changes is in an haploid state, meaning here the DNA content has been reduced by half. In humans (2n = 46), who have 23 pairs of chromosomes, the number of chromosomes is reduced by half at the end of meiosis I (n = 23). This haploid state is still maintained by the meiosis II just undergoing the normal mitosis division.
