The permeability of a lipid bilayer for glucose is 10-8 cm/sec. Consider a cell whose glucose transporter is
knocked out. If it is placed in a solution that contains 1 mM glucose, how many glucose molecules will
enter the cell in 10 seconds? Assume that the cell contains no glucose and the surface area of its plasma
membrane is 5 μm2. - 3000
Which is the following is true about the NaK pump? - It helps regulate cell volume
Ion channels cannot transport ions across membranes at rates faster than those predicted by Fick's law -
False

can occur without enzymes
Assume that the kinetics of a phosphorylation reaction carried out by a kinase can be appropriately
described by the Michaelis-Menten relationship. Competitive inhibition of this kinase by a drug molecule
will - Alter the slope of the line in the Lineweaver-Burk plot, but not the maximum rate of the
reaction.
Which channel needs to be in the open state during the rising phase of an action potential? -
Voltage-gated Na+ channels
The action potential does not reverse direction on its own because - The voltage-gated Na+
channels cannot transition directly from inactive to open states

play a key role in the formation of cell-cell junctions.
During actin filament reorganization, Cofilin - helps in removing hydrolyzed actin monomers from
actin filaments
The diameter of a microtubule is - 25 nm
