II. Choose the best answer. Encircle the letter corresponding to your answer.
1) Which of the following substances can easily diffuse across the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane
a. Amino acids b. O2 and CO2 c. glucose d. K+
2) Which of the following statements about facilitated diffusion and active transport is true?
a. Both processes require proteins, and are therefore both considered forms of active transport.
b. Facilitated diffusion involves channel proteins, but not carrier proteins; active transport involves
carrier proteins, but not channel proteins.
c. Both processes transport substances against their electrochemical gradients.
d. Facilitated diffusion is driven by electrochemical gradients, whereas active transport requires an additional
source of energy.

a. is to create and maintain a membrane potential across animal cell membranes.
b. is to balance the charges across the cell membranes of animal cells.
c. is to build up potassium outside the cell and sodium inside the cell.
d. is to regenerate ATP by adding a phosphate to ADP.
4) The mechanism of co-transport (symport/antiport)…
a. is a type of active transport that requires energy in the form of ATP.
b. is a type of active transport that does NOT require energy in the form of ATP.
c. is a type of passive transport that does NOT require energy in the form of ATP.
d. is a type of passive transport that requires energy in the form of ATP.
