Selective permeability Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

AP Biology Questions and Answers (Graded A) The resting membrane potential depends on which of the following? I. Active transport II. Selective permeability III. Differential distribution of ions across the axonal membrane A. III only B. I and II only C. II and III only D. I, II, and III D The resting potential depends on active transport (the Na+K+-ATPase pump) and the selective permeability of the axon membrane to K+ than to Na+, which leads to a differential distribution of ...

Differential distribution of ions across the anxonal membrane All three. The resting potential depends on active transport (the Na+K+ATPase pump) and the selective permeability of the axon membrane to K+ than to Na+, which leads to a differential distribution of ions across the axonal membrane Mitosis The division of the moth...

what is innate immunity -rapid response (hours) -fixed -limited number of specificities -constant during respone what is adaptive immunity -slow response (days to weeks) -variable -numerous highly selective specificities -improve during response examples of innate immunity -anatomical barriers: physical and chemical barriers -phagocytic cells: patrol bloodstream and tissue and rush to site of infection -complement: direct activities of some phagocytic cells what are the main adapti...

ATI TEAS 6 EXAM STUDY GUIDE Science Cell Cell: basic organizational unit of all living things. One thing in common is they all have membranes (phospholipids). Cell structure organization: All cells contain DNA, and RNA & can synthesize proteins. Consists of nucleic acids, cytoplasm, and cell membrane. o Tissues: Cells that are grouped together o Organs: Tissues that are grouped together o Systems: Organs that are grouped together o Organism: A complete individual Nuclear parts of a c...

Nuclear parts of a cell o Nucleus: contains chromosomes, & regulates DNA of the cell. Defining structure of eukaryotic cells (they all have nucleus). Passes genetic traits between generations. Contains nuclear envelop, nucleoplasm, nucleolus, nuclear pores, chromatin, & ribosomes. o Chromosomes: thread like rods of DNA. Short deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA is the genetic material that stores information about the plant/animal. o Chromatin: DNA & Protein makeup chromosomes o Nucleolus: Proteins,...

The plasma membrane is: A) A highly selective permeability barrier of the cell B) A primary support structure of the cell C) A source of nutrient production D) A structure that identifies a cell as eukaryotic or prokaryotic CORRECT ANSWER A) A highly selective permeability barrier of the cell Sterols are: A) Almost always present in eukaryotic membranes but absent in prokaryotic membranes B) Almost always absent in eukaryotic membranes but present in prokaryotic membranes C) A...
