Is there evidence to show the circle can cross the semi-permeable membrane?
No
Yes
Not able to tell

Poll
If you left this "system" for an extended period of time and then viewed it again, would you expect to find any changes in the concentrations of the molecules on either side of the membrane?
No - it would be the same
Yes - there would be more triangles on the right side
Yes - all the circles would go to the right side
Maybe - the triangles wouldn't move but the circles might change a little bit
10
The membrane is selectively permeable
This means that some things can pass through and others cannot
11
Multiple Select
What two major types of biological molecules compose the majority of the cell membrane in this model? (pick 2)
Lipid
Protein
Carbohydrate
Nucleic Acid
12
Multiple Choice
How many different protein molecules are in the picture?
0

Open Ended
What is the difference between the position of the surface proteins and the membrane-spanning proteins?
14
Multiple Choice
When a carbohydrate chain is attached to a protein, what is the structure called?
Phospholipid
Carbohydrate chain
Glycoprotein
Glycolipid
15
Multiple Choice
When a carbohydrate chain is attached to a lipid, what is the structure called?
Phospholipid
Carbohydrate chain
Glycoprotein
Glycolipid
16
Multiple Select
What types of molecules are shown moving across the membrane?
Small nonpolar
Small polar
Phospholipids
Carbohydrate chains
17
Multiple Choice
How does the concentration of the small molecules inside the cell compare to that outside the cell?
Higher concentration inside than out
Higher concentration outside than in
Lower concentration outside than in
Carbohydrate chains
18
Multiple Choice
Because particles move randomly, molecules tend to move across the membrane in both directions. Does the picture indicate that the molecules are moving in equal amounts in both direction?
Yes - arrows showing movement are equal
No - more arrows showing movement are pointing in
No - more arrows showing movement are pointing out
19
Diffusion
Molecules moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
Happens naturally without any input of energy
20
Occurs between the outside of the cell and the cytoplasm
The cytoplasm is a solution of many different substances and water
21
Determining Concentration
The concentration of a solution is the mass of a solute in a given volume of solution (usually mass/volume)
Example: If you dissolve 12 grams of salt in 3 liters of water the concentration would be 12g/3L or 4 g/L
22
Equilibrium
Happens when the concentration of solutes becomes the same throughout
Molecules diffuse until equilibrium is reached
23
Multiple Choice
Looking back at this image, which particles are moving by diffusion across the membrane?
None
Both
Triangles
Circles
24
Multiple Choice
Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from an area of ___________ concentration to an area of ____________ concentration.
low, high
high, low
low, low
high, high
25
Multiple Choice
Molecules will continue to move along a concentration gradient until they reach ______.
diffusion
concentration
equilibrium
26
Multiple Choice
Once equilibrium is reached, how will molecules move across a membrane?
randomly
in one direction
they will stop moving
