Answer:

<em><u>H1: false, the observations of the molecules do not support the hypothesis...</u></em>

Explanation:

The cell membrane is comprised of a phospholipid bilayer, proteins, and cholesterol. These components help the membrane to maintain its selective permeability and concentration of solutes and water.

The lipid molecules have polar hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails. These only readily allow for the movement of small non polar molecules. Other substances, like charged ions and large molecules require transport proteins to move in and out of the cell. Hypothesis: H+ is small and should be able to move freely through the membrane, While glucose is large and cannot move freely

  • Observing H+, despite being very small these cannot easily pass through the membrane. They require transport proteins called channels for their free movement or passive movement across the membrane.
  • For glucose, these molecules pass through specialized channels in facilitated diffusion. They move down their concentration gradient into the cell. To move out of the cell against its concentration gradient glucose requires ATP for active transport.
  • Cortisol, is a large steroid hormone, taken into the cell by simple diffusion across the lipid membrane, down its concentration gradient.

Q? Describe the concentration gradient of carbon dioxide across the cell membrane.
hoa [83]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide goes with the concentration gradient across the cell membrane. It goes in the direction of the concentration gradient, from high concentration to low concentration.

Explanation:

CO_{2} undergoes simple diffusion, which is an example of passive transport. Passive transport diffusion goes with the concentration gradient, while on the other hand, active transport goes against the concentration gradient.

Going with the concentration gradient means that the molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. This is what carbon dioxide does.

Going against the concentration gradient means that the molecules move from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration. This goes against the concentration gradient.
