What allows a cell to stockpile substances in far greater concentration that they occur outside the cell?
Cells are able to stockpile substances in high concentrations through active transport mechanisms, such as pumps or transporters, which use energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient. These mechanisms allow cells to accumulate substances in greater amounts than their surrounding environment.
What kind of environment is described when the concentration of dissolved substances is greater inside the cell or outside?
When greater than the cell it is hypertonic lower it is hypotonic
What is the solution concentration of dissolved substances will be greater in the cell than in the solution in which it is placed?
The solution concentration of dissolved substances will be greater inside the cell than outside if the cell is in a hypertonic solution. This causes water to move out of the cell, leading to shrinkage or crenation of the cell.
What would if the concentration of the starch inside of the membrane was greater than the starch concentration outside the membrane?
Assuming the starch can not penetrate the membrane, but the carrier liquid can, then the liquid would flow into the membrane until the two concentrations were the same. Or the starch would migrate out of the membrane until the concentrations were the same if it can.
What is a cell in when solute concentrations inside and outside the cell are equal?
Isotonic.
How does active transport enable the movement of substances from a low concentration to a high concentration within a cell?
Active transport is a process in which cells use energy to move substances against their concentration gradient, from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. This allows the cell to maintain specific concentrations of substances inside and outside the cell, which is important for various cellular functions.
What happens when the concentration of dissolved substances is greater outside the cell than inside?
Water will move out of the cell in an attempt to equalize the concentration of dissolved substances, causing the cell to shrink or shrivel up. This process is known as crenation, and can have negative effects on the cell's functioning.
Are substances able to travel against their concentration gradient?
Yes, substances can travel against their concentration gradient through active transport mechanisms that require the input of energy. This process allows cells to maintain or regulate internal concentrations of specific molecules independent of their outside environment.
Based on diffusion what will happen to the substances inside and outside of the cell?
Substances will move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration in order to achieve equilibrium. Inside the cell, substances will diffuse out if the concentration outside is higher, and substances will diffuse in if the concentration outside is lower, until equilibrium is reached.
When a cell is in the equilibrium does anything move in or out?
In a state of equilibrium, there is no net movement of substances in or out of the cell. However, individual molecules may still move across the cell membrane in both directions at equal rates, resulting in a balanced concentration of substances inside and outside the cell. This dynamic process allows for the maintenance of homeostasis while ensuring that the overall concentrations remain stable.
The cell substances located outside the nucleus compose the?
Compose the what?
Recognizes and binds to substances outside of the cell?
Receptor proteins.
