Where does the plasma membrane of animals contain carbohydrates?
On the outer side of the membrane.
What does the difference in the K and Na concentration on either side of the plasma membrane and permeability of the membrane to those ions generate?
resting membrane potential
Why would a substance not be able to pass through a membrane by diffusion?
Water cannot diffuse a plasma membrane because of the fact that the phosphate heads of the phospholipids are hydrophilic, the hydrocarbon tails of the phospholipids are hydrophobic, meaning they repel water. The bilayer phospholipid model of the plasma membrane shows that the phophates face outward on either side of the membrane and the lipid tails are in the middle of the bilayer.
What membrane proteins are integral proteins?
Membranes bound within the cell membrane. Integral proteins extend from one side of the membrane to the other.
Which side of the membrane is water split?
Thylakoid Space
When one side of the membrane has a higher concentration of particles then the other side of the membrane what happens?
osmosis
Where does the plasma membrane of animals contain carbohydrates?
On the outer side of the membrane.
The side from which more water molecules cross the semipermeable membrane?
The pure solvent side is the side from which more water molecules cross the semipermeable membrane.
What part of the cell membrane attracts water molecules?
the side with the oxygens (the polar side)
What happens when two balloons with equal charges lie side by side?
It depends on whether the charges are like or opposite, and how strong they are.
What type of transport occurs when a membrane protein binds to a molecule on one side of the cell membrane then releases it to the other side?
facilitated diffusion
Which type of transport occurs when a membrane protein binds to a molecule on one side of the cell membrane and then releases it on the other side side?
facilitated diffusion is the type of membrane that occurs in protein binds. This is when molecule goes to one side.Edit : fixed the wrong answer
What does the difference in the K and Na concentration on either side of the plasma membrane and permeability of the membrane to those ions generate?
resting membrane potential
Why would a battery represent mitochrondia?
Pumping protons through the mitochondrian membrane creates a gradient, just like in batteries, where electrons get transferred to different molecules and eventually ending up in ATP. It would be a representation because the membrane charges up (one side is positive and the other, negative) just like in a battery.

Blood relative on the mother's side?
aunt
What does the difference in the K and Na concentration on either side of the plasma membrane (and permeability of the membrane to those ions) generate?
Resting membrane Potential
