    The document contains 8 questions about transport across cell membranes for a human biology revision session. The questions cover topics like the fluid mosaic model of cell membranes, diffusion, osmosis, active and facilitated transport, and endocytosis vs exocytosis. Students are asked to define key terms, draw diagrams, and explain processes related to how substances move across the semi-permeable bilayer of the cell membrane.

    HUMAN BIOLOGY REVISION QUESTIONS (9 Feb.

    24)
    TOPICS: TRANSPORT ACROSS A MEMBRANE

    1. Why is the cell membrane described as a bilayer?

    2. Elucidate the fluid mosaic model and its relation to the functions of the cell
    membrane.

    3. Draw a diagram to illustrate the process of diffusion.


    4. What are some factors that may affect the rate of diffusion? Explain how this may
    occur.

    5. Define osmosis.

    6. What is osmotic pressure? Draw a diagram to illustrate your explanation.


    7. Describe 2 differences between active and facilitated transport.

    8. Explain how endocytosis is different from exocytosis.
