Read each question carefully and answer to the best of your ability. Show all work where applicable.

1. Which of the following is NOT a type of passive transport?

a

Facilitated diffusion

b

Osmosis

c

Active transport

d

Simple diffusion

2. The primary function of the sodium-potassium pump is to:

a

Facilitate water movement across the membrane

b

Pump sodium ions into the cell and potassium ions out of the cell

c

Maintain the resting membrane potential

d

Produce ATP for cellular energy

3. The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration is called  .

4.   is the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane.

5. Active transport requires energy, typically in the form of  , to move substances against their concentration gradient.

6. Describe the structure of the cell membrane and explain how its components contribute to its selective permeability.

Cell Membrane Cross Section
