Frage 1

Frage
The main component of a biological membrane is a [blank_start]phospholipid[blank_end] [blank_start]bilayer[blank_end]. [blank_start]Hydrophilic[blank_end] heads face out while [blank_start]hydrophobic[blank_end] tails face in. The model is called a "[blank_start]fluid[blank_end] [blank_start]mosaic[blank_end] [blank_start]model[blank_end]" because there are several components making up the membrane, which all move laterally relative to each other.
Antworten
  • phospholipid
  • bilayer
  • Hydrophilic
  • hydrophobic
  • fluid
  • mosaic
  • model

Frage 2

Frage
The molecule MOST responsible for plasma membrane fluidity is...
Antworten
  • Phospholipid
  • Cholesterol
  • Protein channel
  • Integral protein
  • Cytoskeleton

Frage 3

Frage
A protein with a carbohydrate attached to it is called a [blank_start]glycoprotein[blank_end].
Antworten
  • glycoprotein

Frage 4

Frage
Which of the following statements are true about cell surface membranes? Select all that apply.
Antworten
  • Partially permeable.
  • Regulate transport into/out of cells.
  • Primary organelle involved in modifying and packaging polypeptides.
  • Displaying antigens.
  • Reaction site for some metabolic pathways.
  • Site of glycolysis.

Frage 5

Frage
All biological membranes are roughly the same as they fulfill the same role.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 6

Frage
Which of the following statements correctly describe the effect of temperature on fatty acids? Select all that apply.
Antworten
  • As the temperature decreases, saturated fatty acids become less fluid.
  • As the temperature decreases, saturated fatty acids become more fluid.
  • As the temperature decreases, unsaturated fatty acids become more fluid.
  • As the temperature decreases, unsaturated fatty acids become less fluid.

Frage 7

Frage
Which of the following statements correctly describe the effect of temperature on biological membranes? Select all that apply.
Antworten
  • As the temperature increases, the membrane becomes more fluid.
  • As the temperature increases, the membrane becomes less permeable.
  • As the temperature increases, membrane components move around more.
  • As the temperature increases, cholesterol works to make the membrane more fluid.

Frage 8

Frage
Which of the following can denature proteins in biological membranes?
Antworten
  • High temperatures
  • Low temperatures
  • Extreme pH
  • Acetone
  • Ethanol
  • Water
