Sodium ions are more highly concentrated outside the cell, in the extracellular fluid. Which process would be used to return any sodium ions that leaked into the cell back to the extracellular fluid? active transport osmosis simple diffusion exocytosis facilitated diffusion Question 5 Select one answer. An animal cell placed in a hypotonic solution will __________. burst shrivel stay the same Question 6 Select one answer. A substance, such as glucose, will enter a cell following its concentration gradient, from the blood and tissues, through the membrane, and into the cytoplasm. Such movement of glucose has a maximal capacity, does not require energy, and is specific only for glucose. How is the entry of glucose into the cell occurring? By facilitated diffusion By simple diffusion By active transport By osmosis By endocytosis Question 7 Select one answer. Increasing the concentration gradient: Does not alter the rate of diffusion Decreases the rate of diffusion Increases the rate of diffusion Question 8 Select one answer. Active transport could also be called facilitated diffusion. True False Question 9 Select one answer. An immune cell would engulf a pathogenic cell using the process of: ________________ ? endocytosis passive transport exocytosis active transport Question 10 Select one answer. 10 points Protein transporters that move materials against a concentration gradient are active transport proteins.
