Questions to Answer: Video Guide for Bozeman Biology TRANSPORT ACROSS CELL MEMBRANES 1. Why is a cell membrane easily dissolved by soap? 2. What does selective permeability mean? 3. What does amphipathic mean? 4. Why is the cell membrane described as fluid mosaic? 5. What are the roles of cholesterol in the cell membrane? 6. What are glycoproteins composed of? What is their function? 7. What are glycolipids composed of? What is their function? 8. What are phospholipids composed of? 9. Diagram an individual phospholipid and a bilayer of phospholipids. Label the hydrophilic head, and hydrophobic tails in both. 10. Diagram a sketch of the phospholipid bi-layer and indicate which side has a charge and which side has no charge. 11. What are some examples of molecules that can move freely through the cell membrane? Explain why. 12. What process allows these molecules to move through the cell membrane? 13. Describe the functions of the proteins that are embedded in the membrane. 14. How does water move across the cell membrane? 15. Explain how the sodium potassium pump works. 16. What is the role of the cell wall in cell transport?

Define the following terms as you watch the video: a) Passive transport b) Diffusion c) Facilitated diffusion d) Osmosis e) Hypertonic f) Hypotonic g) Isotonic h) Hydrophilic i) Hydrophobic j) Active Transport k) ATP l) Electrochemical Gradient m) Exocytosis (provide an example of this process) n) Endocytosis (phagocytosis, pinocytosis, receptormediated endocytosis)

Things you should make sure you understand: (feel free to ask questions about them in class) The similarities and differences between simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport. Where cells get the energy to power active transport. The relationship between osmosis and tonicity. The adaptive strategies of animal, plant, and protist cells for dealing with the tonicity of their environments.
