9. Which Structure Prevents Water-Soluble Molecules From Entering Cells Across The
Plasma Membrane?
a. Carbohydrate Chains
b. Glycoprotein Channels
c. Membrane Channel Proteins
d. Lipid Bilayer
ANSWER: D

, The Bilayer’s Structure Accounts For One Of The Essential Functions Of The Plasma
Membrane. It Is Impermeable To Most Water-Soluble Molecules (Molecules That Dissolve In
Water) Because The Water-Soluble Molecules Are Insoluble In The Oily Core Region. The
Bilayer Serves As A Barrier To The Diffusion Of Water And Hydrophilic Substances While
Allowing Lipid-Soluble Molecules, Such As Oxygen (O2) And Carbon Dioxide (Co2), To
Diffuse Through It Readily. Carbohydrate Chains, Glycoprotein Channels, And Membrane
Channel Proteins Do Not Prevent Water-Soluble Molecules From Entering Cells Across The
Cell Membrane.

12. Which Mode Of Chemical Signaling Uses Blood To Transport Communication To Cells Some
Distance Away?
a. Paracrine
b. Autocrine
c. Neurotransmitter
d. Hormonal

, ANSWER: D
Chemical Signaling Can Be Classified Into Three Categories: (1) Local-Chemical Mediator, (2)
Hormone, And (3) Neurotransmitter. Hormones Are Released By One Set Of Cells And Travel
Through Tissues Or The Bloodstream To Another Set Of Cells Where They Produce A Response
By Those Cells. In Paracrine Signaling, Cells Secrete Local Chemical Mediators That Are
Quickly Absorbed, Destroyed, Or Immobilized. Paracrine Signaling Requires Close Membrane-
To-Membrane Contact. Paracrine Signaling Usually Involves Different Cell Types; However,
Cells Also May Produce Signals That They, Themselves, Respond To, Which Is Called
Autocrine Signaling. Neurotransmitters Are Released By Neurons And Cross The Synaptic Cleft
To Communicate With The Cells They Innervate.

a. Paracrine
b. Autocrine
c. Neurotransmitter
d. Hormone
ANSWER: A
In Paracrine Signaling, Cells Secrete Local Chemical Mediators That Are Quickly Taken Up,
Destroyed, Or Immobilized. Autocrine Signaling Occurs When The Target Cells Produce
Signals That They Themselves Respond To. Neurotransmitters Are Released By Neurons And
Cross The Synaptic Cleft To Communicate With The Cells They Innervate. Hormones Are
Released By One Set Of Cells And Travel Through Tissues Or The Bloodstream To Another Set
Of Cells Where They Produce A Response By Those Cells.
