What other particles move through a cell membrane through osmosis or diffusion?
Along with water molecules, small uncharged molecules such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, and lipid-soluble substances can move through a cell membrane via osmosis or diffusion. These particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration to maintain equilibrium within the cell.
What two substances need to move out of the cell for it to maintain homeostasis?
Carbon dioxide and waste products need to move out of the cell in order to maintain homeostasis. In exchange, oxygen and nutrients enter the cell to support cellular functions.
Which substances are transported across the cell membrane by ATP requiring transport pumps?
Substances such as ions like sodium, potassium, calcium, and hydrogen are transported across the cell membrane by ATP requiring transport pumps. These pumps consume ATP energy to move ions against their concentration gradient.
Why osmosis important?
helps in the movement of water from one cell to another in plants makes it possible for liquid solvent to pass through cell membranes facilitates the distribution of essential nutrients in the body and the excretion of waste products
What Many substances move through cell membranes from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration in the process of?
Diffusion.
Are many short hair-like structures on the surface of the cell that help move the cell or move substances past the cell?
cilia
What controls which substances can move in and out of cells?
Cell membrane controls which substances can move in and out of a cell. It is the dynamic boundary of cell
How do substances like co2 and move in and out of the cell?
By the process of diffusion and osmosis.
What happens when the concentration of dissolved substances is greater outside the cell than inside?
Water will move out of the cell in an attempt to equalize the concentration of dissolved substances, causing the cell to shrink or shrivel up. This process is known as crenation, and can have negative effects on the cell's functioning.
What are 3 substances the can move in and out of the cell?
alcohol, water, oxygen and carbon dioxide can all dissolve through the lipids in the cell membrane.
ARE many short hair like structures on the surface of a cell that help move the cell or move substances past the cell?
Cilia are many short hair-like structures on the surface of a cell that help move the cell or move substances past the cell. They can be found in various types of cells, including those lining the respiratory tract to help sweep mucus and foreign particles out of the lungs.
Does Phagocytosis move substances out of a cell?
No, phagocytosis is a process where a cell engulfs and internalizes solid particles or other cells. It is not used to move substances out of a cell but rather to bring them into the cell for processes like digestion or immune response.
What projections allow the cell to move or moves substances along the surface of the cell?
Projections that allow the cell to move or to move substances along the surface of the cell are called cilia and flagella. Flagella is a single long hair that allows the cell to swim. Cilia are several projections used for movement across the cell surface.
What is the name of the hair-like structures on a sponge cell that moves back and forth to help move water or nutrients or waste through the canal?
The hair-like structures on a sponge cell that move back and forth to help move water or nutrients or waste through the canal are called flagella. These structures create a current that allows for the circulation of water and the uptake of nutrients in sponges.
What is the solution concentration of dissolved substances will be greater in the cell than in the solution in which it is placed?
The solution concentration of dissolved substances will be greater inside the cell than outside if the cell is in a hypertonic solution. This causes water to move out of the cell, leading to shrinkage or crenation of the cell.
What is a complex molecule that is embedded in the cell membrane that helpss move substances move into and out of a cell?
Transport protein
How would substances move in and out of a living cell?
by the chloroplast
