5. When a sea urchin egg is removed from the ocean and placed in freshwater, the egg swells and bursts. Which of these causes water to enter the egg? F Coagulation G Sodium pump H Active transport J Osmosis Back to Cell functions Home Osmosis is the movement of water through a membrane from cleaner “high concentration” toless clean “lower concentration”. Ocean water (because of its salt) is the lower concentration. Freshwater (less salt) is the high concentration. 34

6. Back to Cell functions Home Real histamine 4. Histamine is a polar chemical that can lead to an allergic response when it is released by the body’s immune system. An antihistamine is a drug that can help prevent the allergic reactions associated with histamine. An antihistamine is a similar molecule to histamine in size, shape, and polarity. How does an antihistamine most likely prevent the effects of histamine? A It increases the diffusion of histamine across the membranes of target cells. B It binds to histamine receptors on the surfaces of target cells. C It causes target cells to increase production of histamine receptors. D It blocks histamine receptors found in the cytoplasm of target cells. Model histamine antihistamine

8. Back to Cell functions Home Which would most likely cause the liquid in Tube A to rise? F Starch concentrations being equal on each side of the membrane G Water passing from a region of lower starch concentration to one of higher starch concentration H Water and starch volumes being the same J Solute in the tubes changing from a higher temperature to a lower temperature Starch is a solute. Osmosis is when ‘cleaner water’ (in this case ‘distilled’) wants to go through a membrane to ‘less clean water’ (in this case, ‘starchy’). Tube B water goes through the Dialysis membrane toward the Tube A. Water goes from high concentration to low concentration. Or if you want to look at it from the solute point of view…the water goes from ‘less solute solution’ to ‘more solute solution.’ The solute (starch) doesn’t go through this membrane. 14
