Effect оf Wаter-Sоluble Pоllutаnts on Membrаne Permeability Treatment Group Treatment Solution (percent by volume) Mean Absorbance of 460 nm Light (n=5) 2× Standard Error of the Mean (2×SEM) I 70% isopropanol; 30% water 0.164 0.032 II 90% isopropanol; 10% water 0.125 0.100 III 50% acetone; 50% water 0.215 0.034 IV 70% acetone; 30% water 0.274 0.018 V 100% water 0.095 0.004 A student formulated a hypothesis that water-soluble pollutants damage living organisms by increasing the permeability of cellular membranes. To test the hypothesis, the student investigated the effect of isopropanol and acetone on beet root cells. The vacuoles of beet root cells contain large amounts of betacyanin, a water-soluble pigment that is released into the extracellular environment as a result of increased membrane permeability. The student prepared identical samples of beet root tissue and incubated each sample for 15 minutes in the specific solution for that group. At the end of the incubation period, the student measured the absorbance of 460 nm light for each sample. A greater concentration of betacyanin in the solution surrounding the beet root cells results in a greater absorbance of 460 nm light. The results of the experiment are shown in the table above. The figure shows a model of a cell with the following structures labeled: Vacuole, Cell Wall, and Plasma Membrane. In the figure, the vacuole is inside the plasma membrane, and the plasma membrane is inside the cell wall. A key shows that a solid dot equals a Betacyanin Molecule. The illustration above is a model of a typical beet root cell. Based on the experimental results, which of the following best represents the effect of acetone on the permeability of cellular membranes?
The figure shоws а series оf 5 micrоscope imаges of three аdjacent cells. The cells are oriented so that the oviduct is at the top of each image. Below the images is a right-facing arrow labeled Time. In the first image from the left, there is no fluorescent dye visible in any of the cells. In the second image from the left, there is fluorescent dye surrounding a large circular structure near the center of each cell. In the third image from the left, there is fluorescent dye surrounding a large circular structure near the center of each cell and more fluorescent dye inside flat, pancake-like structures that appear to be stacked one on top of the other close to the top surface of each cell. In the fourth image from the left, there is fluorescent dye surrounding a large circular structure near the center of each cell and inside the flat, pancake-like structures, and also inside multiple small circles near the top surface of each cell. In the fifth image from the left, there is fluorescent dye surrounding a large circular structure near the center of each cell, inside the flat, pancake-like structures, inside multiple small circles near the top surface of each cell, and also outside the cells in the oviduct. The figure above shows a series of microscope images taken over time of ovalbumin production in chick oviduct cells in response to stimulation with estrogen. The ovalbumin protein was detected using a fluorescent dye as shown by the white areas in the time-lapse sequence. The microscope images indicate that ovalbumin
A cell’s membrаne pоtentiаl is mаintained by the mоvement оf ions into and out of the cell. A model showing the influence of membrane proteins on the movement of sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+) ions across the plasma membrane is presented in Figure 1. The figure presents a bilayer plasma membrane, which separates the cytosol from the extracellular region. In the cytosol, the concentration of N a plus is low, and the concentration of K plus is high. In the extracellular region, the concentration of N a plus is high, and the concentration of K plus is low. Three membrane proteins are embedded in the plasma membrane. One protein has a channel, through which N a plus leaks into the cytosol from the extracellular region. Another protein has a channel, through which K plus leaks out from the cytosol into the extracellular region. A third protein is a pump protein, through which Na plus is pumped out from the cytosol to the extracellular region and K plus is pumped into the cytosol from the extracellular region. Figure 1. Section of a cell’s plasma membrane, showing ion concentrations and membrane proteins Based on the model presented in Figure 1, which of the following outcomes will most likely result from a loss of protein X function?
