movement of oxygen from red blood cells into
other cells in the body?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Osmosis.
Endocytosis.
Diffusion.
Facilitated diffusion.
Explanation:
Diffusion is the tendency of molecules to move from an area of
high concentration to one of low concentration. Thus, oxygen
diffuses out of red blood cells, into the fluid surrounding our other
cells, and then into the cells themselves, where the concentration
of oxygen is lower.

What sets off a series of chemical reactions that
result in the target cell’s response to a message?
A. The opening of gap junctions.
B. The binding of the message molecule to the receptor.

A. The opening of gap junctions.
B. The binding of the message molecule to the receptor.
C. A portion of the cell membrane folding inward and pinching off.
D. Diffusion of material through the cell wall.
Explanation:
When a message molecule reaches the specific receptor protein it
can bind to, it sets off a series of chemical reactions that ultimately
lead to the cell responding to the message.

allow reactions to happen more quickly.
raise the activation energy of reactions.
must be replenished by cells as they are used up in reactions.
Both A and B.
Explanation:
Enzymes, which lower the activation energy of a reaction, are not
altered or destroyed in the reaction they catalyze and so do not
have to be replaced by the cell.

of cyanide on the human body?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Competitive.
Noncompetitive.
Controlled.
Uncontrolled.
Explanation:
Competitive inhibition is the process by which an inhibitor such as
cyanide binds to the active site of an enzyme, preventing it from
binding its substrate.

What happens in the chlorophyll molecule of a
plant?
A. Chlorophyll harvests energy from the electron transport chain.
B. When chlorophyll loses an electron, it grabs an electron from water,
forming free oxygen.
C. Molecules of G3P are combined to make one molecule of glucose.

C. Molecules of G3P are combined to make one molecule of glucose.
D. Chlorophyll captures electrons from sunlight and uses them to turn
oxygen into water.
Explanation:
Chlorophyll is crucial to the light-dependent reactions of
photosynthesis. Sunlight strikes the chlorophyll molecule, knocking
out an electron, which forces chlorophyll to grab an electron from
water.
