Q

What causes cells to shrink

A

Hypotonic- lowest concentration of solutes. Has more water. Cells moves by water. WATER ENTERS=CELL SWELLS/BURST

Hypertonic- WATER LEAVES=CELL SHRINKS/SHRIVELS
IT SHRINKS BECAUSE THE WATER MOLECULES WILL MOVE OUT OF THE CELL CAUSING IT TO LOSE MASS

Q

4 organelles and their functions in eukaryotic cells

A

Mitochondria- does ATP energy through cellular respiration
Nucleos- contains DNA
Golgi Apparatus- packages proteins and lipids for transport
ER- helps transport protein and lipids

Q

Endosymbiosis’ Theory 3 pieces of evidence that proves it

A

The mitochondria and chloroplasts contain DNA AND RIBOSOMES AND THE REPRODUCE THROUGH BINARY FISSION. THEY HAVE DOUBLE MEMBRANE

Q

How does polar large molecules can get through the membrane

A

Transport Portiens like carrier proteins which is Facilitated diffusion.

Without the cell expending extra energy
helps large molecules like

The transport proteins because no ATP or required. They move from low to high concentration. Uses channel or carrier proteins

Since they’re not compatible with the non polar tails of the membrane it’s hard for them pass though so facilitated diffusion without energy

Channel proteins change the shape to move it across their membrane and release it to the other side
so that have a harder time passing through
