Whats the same about eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are similar in which of the following ways?
When will water and solutes stop moving across a membrane?
Particles in a given medium stop moving across the membrane during diffusion when a state of equilibrium is reached, that is when the number of particles on either side of the membrane equalizes.
What is the name of the process in which water moves into or out of the cell membrane to maintain homeostasis?
Osmosis. In this process water is moved in or out of the cell to reach an isotonic concentration. Meaning that both sides of the cell membrane will be of equal strength.
What do the cell membrane and the nuclear membrane have in common?
They are both double membraned / a double unit membrane
What do nuclear membrane and cell membrane have in common?
They are similar, but they are located in different places. PM's (plasma membrane) enclose the entire cell, regulating what enters and leaves the cell. NM's (nuclear membrane) enclose only the nucleus, but basically have the same structure and function.
What are the cell membrane and water both involved in?
The cell membrane and water are both involved in "Osmosis" the making of Chloroplasts.
The cell membrane and water are both involved in?
osmosis, the making of chloroplasts
What organelle is involved in passive transport in both plant and animal?
the plasma membrane.
When will water stopping across a membrane?
When will water stop moving across a membrane when the water concentration is equal on both sides.
What are three ways that prokaryotes are like?
Both have a cell membrane, genetic material, and ribosomes.
What is a passive tranport of water by diffusion?
Osmosis is the movement of water across a membrane so there will be an equal concentration of solute and water on both sides of the membrane.
What are three ways that prokaryotes are like eukaryotes?
Both have a cell membrane, genetic material, and ribosomes.
What everyday object compares to a cellplasma membrane?
An enclosed fence with doors. Though as with every analogy, it isn't perfect because the cellular membrane is fluid, its parts move about, whereas a fence's parts do not. A cell membrane is also not made up of only one material like homogenous fences are. Also, a cell membrane that has water inside and out self organises into a double layer, where both the inner and outer surface have a chemical affinity for water.
Which component of cell membranes are embedded within the membrane and are exposed to both the inside and the outside of the cell?
Trans-membrane proteins that can be used for active or passive transport of material into and out of the cell.
What is the major difference between between facilitated diffusion and active transport?
Facilitated diffusion occurs in order to maintain homeostasis within a cell. If there is more of something, such as water, inside a cell than outside the cell, diffusion allows the water to flow out of the cell so that an equal amount of water molecules exists both inside and outside the membrane. This requires little or no energy from the cell itself. Active transport is when the cell takes in or excretes material through the membrane so that the amount of material inside and outside the membrane is different. This requires energy from the cell to occur.
Whats the same about eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are similar in which of the following ways?
Why do animal cells and plant cells are both considered eukaryotic?
Because both cells have a double membrane bound nucleus containing the genetic material and both have many membrane bound organelles.
