Name:_____________________________

Remember to read all of the possible answers for each question before choosing the BEST ANSWER. 1. Random motion causes a net movement of substances dissolved in water from regions where their concentration is high to regions where their concentration is lower. This process is called: a. active transport. b. osmosis. c. diffusion. d. facilitated diffusion. e. selective permeability. 2. Glucose in the bloodstream is allowed to enter red blood cells. This process does not require energy, is specific for glucose (other sugars cannot enter via this pathway) and the net movement is of glucose from the bloodstream (where it is at a relatively high concentration) into the cell (where the concentration is lower). This process is most likely to be an example of: a. active transport. b. osmosis. c. diffusion. d. facilitated diffusion. e. coupled transport. 3. A cell takes up sugar molecules from the surrounding fluid. Upon further study it is determined that 1) the sugar concentration in the cell is already higher than that of the surrounding medium, yet the cell continues to be able to take up more and 2) as each sugar molecule is taken up a molecule of sodium is also allowed to enter the cell.
