Into the extracellular fluid (i.e. the fluid outside the cell) c. The same number of sugar molecules will move into the cytoplasm and the extracellular fluid. d.

A. There is never a concentration gradient for water across the membrane to drive its transport. B. The transport protein is needed to prevent the hydrolysis of the phospholipid chains as water crosses the membrane. C. Water is very polar which inhibits its free diffusion across the membrane. D. All molecules require transport proteins to cross a membrane. In the mitochondria phosphate ion (PO43-) and H+ are transported together from the intermembrane space into the matrix. Which statement applies? A. The interior of the transport protein must be uncharged. B. The transport protein must have a relatively large central channel to accommodate both ions. C. The transport protein is a symport. D. All of the abovearrow_forwardWhich of the following would be a location where complexes of the electron transport chain could be found in plant cells?

Ions are hydrophobic and are repelled by the polar membrane C. Ions are polar and are repelled by the nonpolar part of the membrane D. Ions need to become stable before entering the cellarrow_forwardIn animal cells, lysosomes are the organelles in charge of digesting enzymes withnutrients that the cell consumes.
