Document Summary

Bounded by a selective barrier called the plasma membrane. Contain a semi-fluid, jellylike substance called cytosol in which subcellular components are suspended. Contain chromosomes, which carry genes in the form of dna. Contain ribosomes, tiny complexes that make proteins according to instructions from the genes. Dna is found in the nucleus which is bounded by a double membrane. Organelles of specialized form and function, suspended in the cytoplasm. Generally much larger than prokaryotes (surface area to volume ratio) Dna is found is concentrated in a region called the nucleoid which is not membrane enclosed. The cell wall maintains cell shape, protects the cell and prevents it from bursting in a hypotonic environment. Cell wall made of peptidoglycan, a polymer made of modified sugars and crosslinked by short polypeptides this encloses the bacteria and anchors other molecules on its cell surface. Gram positive bacteria have a large amount of peptidoglycan.

1,Match the descriptions to the type of transport.

- A. B. C.	Water enters a cell because it is hypertonic compared to the extracellular environment, increasing its turgor pressure
- A. B. C.	Water enters guard cells because the guard cells are hypertonic compared to the surrounding cells
- A. B. C.	Potassium ions are pumped into guard cells
- A. B. C.	The motor cells of a Venus fly trap are hypotonic compared to surrounding cells, causing water to leave the motor cells
- A. B. C.	Sugar is loaded into the phloem

A.	Both active and passive transport
B.	Passive Transport
C.	Active transport

2,Describe what is wrong with the following statement and explain why:

All prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells contain plasma membrane, nucleus, ribosomes, organelles, cytoplasm, and cell walls.

What is short-distance transport?

	a,	The movement of solutes from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration
		b,The movement of water, nutrients, and other substances between cells
c,		The movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration
d,		The movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from a region of low solute concentration to a region of high solute concentration.

The channels that allow nutrients and protoplasm to pass between plant cells are called _________________.

What happens when a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution?

Water will enter the plant cell and the plasma membrane will swell and cell lysis will occur

Water will enter the plant cell and the plasma membrane will swell and push against the cell wall

Water will leave the plant cell and the plant cell will lose turgor pressure, causing the plant to wilt
