What else can I help you with?
What is it called when sugar passes through an animal cell?
glucose (sugar) can diffuse through cell membranes
What will happen to the cell wall if a sugar solution is added to a cell?
If a sugar solution is added to a cell, water will move out of the cell by osmosis, causing the cell to shrink and potentially lead to plasmolysis. The cell wall will remain intact as it provides structural support to the cell during this process.
Does passive transport require sugar?
Passive transport does not require sugar. Passive transport is a process by which molecules move across a cell membrane without the input of energy, such as diffusion or osmosis. Sugar molecules can be transported passively, but the process itself does not depend on sugar.
Using examples of a cell in a sugar solution explain what is ment by an isotonic solution?
An state of isotonicity means that the concentration of sugar outside the cell is the same as inside the cell. It is also known as osmotic equililbrium. Any sugar that crosses into the cell through the membrane is offset by an equal amount of sugar exiting the cell through that membrane.
What is produced when sugar is disgested in a animal cell?
They use sugar (glucose) to make energy (ATP) to drive the cell processes. They are called the powerhouses of the cell.
What is it called when sugar passes through an animal cell?
glucose (sugar) can diffuse through cell membranes
If water move into a cell and the cell swells what terms describe the environment inside the cell?
The concentration of a sugar is high inside a cell and slightly lower outside the cell what is most likely to occur if the sugar molecules can cross the membrane
What is the process by which molecules of sugar pass through an animal cell membrane to replenish the cell's lack of sugar is?
The process by which molecules of sugar pass through an animal cell membrane is called facilitated diffusion. In this process, sugar molecules move across the cell membrane with the help of specific transport proteins. These transport proteins create channels for the sugar molecules to pass through, allowing them to replenish the cell's supply of sugar.
What will happen to the cell wall if a sugar solution is added to a cell?
If a sugar solution is added to a cell, water will move out of the cell by osmosis, causing the cell to shrink and potentially lead to plasmolysis. The cell wall will remain intact as it provides structural support to the cell during this process.
Why is an advantage for plants to store products of photosynthesis as starch and not sugar?
Starch does not dissolve in the fluid in the cell, so does not affect water potential. Sugar does dissolve, so would reduce water potential of the cell and cause water to move in to the cell by osmosis.
In Word you can move to a cell in a table by clicking in the cell with the mouse or you can move to the cell by pressing the which key on the keyboard?
Tab will move to the next cell and Shift-Tab will move to the previous cell. You can also use the arrow keys to move from one cell to another.
What process is used to move sugar molecules across a cell membrane?
The process used to move sugar molecules across a cell membrane is called facilitated diffusion. This process involves the use of transport proteins in the cell membrane to help facilitate the movement of sugar molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, without requiring energy input from the cell.
Sugar molecules can enter cells through the process of what?
Sugar molecules can enter cells through the process of facilitated diffusion or active transport. Facilitated diffusion involves the use of transporter proteins to move sugars across the cell membrane, while active transport requires energy to move sugars against a concentration gradient into the cell.
Does passive transport require sugar?
Passive transport does not require sugar. Passive transport is a process by which molecules move across a cell membrane without the input of energy, such as diffusion or osmosis. Sugar molecules can be transported passively, but the process itself does not depend on sugar.
A sugar molecule attaches to a special channel on the cell which helps it move from the outside to the inside without letting cytoplasm escape What is this an example of?
Facilitated diffusion
Is the way sugar enters a cell if there is more sugar outside the cell than inside the cell passive or active?
Passive (just guessing)
How would sugar entering a cell that already contains a high concentration of sugar get through a cell membrane into a cell?
It would be Active Transport.
