Chapter 4, Problem 9MCQ
How does ATP relate to membrane transport?
a. | The movement of a substance down its concentration gradient through transport proteins requires the hydrolysis of ATP. |
b. | The higher the concentration of ATP in the cell, the more permeable the membrane is to water and small, nonpolar molecules. |
c. | Digestion produces a high concentration of ATP outside the cell, and the ATP enters the cell via facilitated diffusion. |
d. | A cell uses the energy in ATP to transport substances against their concentration gradient. |

How does ATP relate to membrane transport?a. The movement of a substance down its concentration gradientthrough transport proteins requires the hydrolysis of ATP.b. The higher the concentration of ATP in the cell, the more permeablethe membrane is to water and small, nonpolar molecules.d. A cell uses the energy in ATP to transport substances against theirconcentration gradient.c. Digestion produces a high concentration of ATP outside the cell,and the ATP enters the cell via facilitated diffusion.
If the concentration of a solute is the same both inside and outside the cell, what might you expect with regard to its transport by a membrane protein?
A. Since there is no concentration gradient, no transport either in or out of the cell is possible.
B. The transport protein has been saturated.
C. The solute must be phosphorylated with a phosphate group from ATP before further transport can occur.
D. Movement of the solute across the membrane could occur and cause accumulated on one side of the membrane by an active transport protein.
The concerted model of allosteric regulation is different from the sequential model, because:
A. The concerted model is used to explain homotropic effects
B. The sequential model is used to explain heterotropic effects
C. Both A and B
D. Neither A nor B
Why should it not be surprising that for many cells water requires a protein for its transport across a membrane?
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 above
