Transport Across Membranes
1. Antiport is one type of
A. facilitated transport.
B. active transport.
C. endocytosis.
D. channel protein.
E. carrier protein.
2. Pinocytosis is one type of
A. exocytosis.
B. phagocytosis.
C. facilitated transport.
D. endocytosis.
E. diffusion.
3A. Consider a bacterial cell that is hypertonic in comparison to its environment. Will water move into
the cell or out of the cell?
3B. We now add a large amount of either O2, N2, or Pyruvate to the fluid surrounding the cell. Which
one will have the biggest effect on the movement of water? Will its addition increase or
decrease the movement of water? Please explain your answer.
4.
Imagine a bacterial cell living in a test tube under the following conditions:
inside the cell
outside the cell
K+
Mg2+
Na+
50 mM
10 mM
0.1 mM
3 mM
10 mM
150 mM
4A. Is the G value for Mg2+ movement into the cell positive, negative or zero?
4B. Under these conditions, is the solution hypotonic, hypertonic or isotonic relative to the cell?
4C. Under these conditions, will the net movement of water be into the cell or out of the cell?
Why?
4D. If we added a large concentration (say, 1M) of CO2 to the outside of the cell, it would have
no effect on the net movement of water. Why not?
4E. If the fatty acid tails in the phospholipids that make up this cell’s membranes were more
saturated, would that increase or decrease the rate at which water moves? Or would it have
no effect? Please explain.
5. Which one molecule might move across a membrane by simple diffusion?
A. CO2
B. Glutamate (an amino acid)
C. Insulin (a peptide hormone)
D. K+
E. Maltose (a simple carbohydrate)
6. Which one statement does not accurately describe simple active transport?
A. It requires a protein.
B. Simple active transport is a type of endocytosis.
C. Any type of substrate may be moved by simple active transport.
D. ATP provides the energy for the movement.
E. Simple active transport may be used to move a molecule against its concentration gradient.
7. A human liver cell is living in a a dish under the following conditions:
Na+
SO42-
Cl-
K+
outside the cell
100 mM
0.1 mM
15 mM
15 mM
inside the cell
10 mM
100 mM
15 mM
150 mM
Gin value:
7A. For each ion, indicate in the table whether the G value for the movement of that ion into the
cell is positive (+), negative (-) or zero (0).
7B. These cells use an antiporter protein to drive the uptake of SO42- into the cell. What other ion
might be co-transported along with SO42-? Briefly describe how you arrived at your answer.
7C. Under these conditions, is the cell hypotonic, hypertonic or isotonic relative to the solution?
7D. Under these conditions, will the net movement of water be into the cell or out of the cell?
7E. If we added more cholesterol to this membrane, how would that affect the G values you
described above? How would it affect whether the cell is hypertonic or hypotonic? How would it
affect the rate at which the water moves? Or would it affect any of these? Please briefly explain
your answer.

Manganese ions could be moved by this type (or types)
of transport.
The waste product of aerobic cell respiration is typically
removed from the cell by this one type of transport.
Some cells contain many copies of a Na+/Mn2+
antiporter. What type (or types) of transport is this?
Increasing the number of unsaturations in the
phospholipid tails would increase the rate of which one
type of transport?

10. It’s not surprising that meat spoils quickly if left at room temperature for just a few days, due to the
growth of a large number of bacteria. However, if that meat is first treated with large amounts of
salt (making beef jerky), it can be left at room temperature indefinitely without spoiling. Why?
11. Which process is an example of endocytosis?
A. Mitochondrial fission
B. Antiport
C. Oxidative phosphorylation
D. Osmosis
E. Pinocytosis
12. Imagine that we collect some white blood cells from a human donor and resuspend them in
Phosphate-Buffered Saline (PBS). Under these conditions, the cells can live and be fully
functional for several days. PBS consists of 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer at pH 7.4, 140 mM
NaCl and 1M glucose and is isotonic to the cells.
12A. If we forgot to add any NaCl when preparing the PBS, what would happen to the white
blood cells? Why?
12B. If we accidentally added 280mM NaCl while preparing the PBS, what would happen to the
white blood cells? Why?
12C. After they have lived in the test tube for several hours, we are able to detect increasing
concentrations of lactic acid in solutions surrounding these cells. What can you conclude
about the metabolic state of these cells? Do you also expect these cells to be producing
