Passive and Active Transport Quiz/Test
1. The movement of substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low
concentration or down its concentration gradient is known as what?
a. Diffusion

3. Which cell is most likely to gain both water molecules and solute molecules as the
system approaches equilibrium?
a. Cell 1
4. Which direction are the solute molecules in this system most likely to diffuse?

8. What is the movement of water across the membrane called?
a. Osmosis
9. What direction does sodium-potassium pump usually pump sodium and
potassium?
a. 3 sodium ions out and 2 potassium ions in the cell
10. Removing materials from the cell by vesicles fusing with the membrane is called?
a. exocytosis
11. What will happen cell is placed in a hypertonic solution?
a. It will shrink because water leaves the cell
12. When the cell engulfs a solid this is know as cell eating or what?

a. isotonic
20. What is one way a receptor protein can cause the cell to respond?
a. change of membrane permeability, make a second messenger, act as an
enzyme
21. In diffusion substances move from an area of high concentration to an area of low
concentration until what is reached?
a. equilibrium
22. The cell membrane is known as
because it only lets some
substances into the cell.
a. selectively permeable
