In this process, the membrane of the secretory vesicle becomes part of the cell membrane because small pieces of the membrane are continually added to the cell membrane, one would expect the cell membrane to become larger and larger as secretion continues. The cell membrane stays the same size, however. Explain how this happens.arrow_forward

Name the structure and tell why. Then state which type of cell(s) have this structure.arrow_forwardSome nutrients and other types of particles can be taken into a cell when the cell's plasma membrane encloses the particles and pinches off, forming a free-floating vesicle inside the cell. A lysosome containing digestive enzymes then fuses with the vesicle. Which term best classifies the uptake of such particles by the cell?

Using different symbols (circles for oxygen, squares for sucrose, and triangles for potassium ions), show the relative concentrations (gradients) of these substances on the inside and outside of the cell. For example, to show that oxygen enters the cell by going “down” its gradient, you would draw more circles on the outside of the cell than inside the cell. Be sure to show and label membrane proteins when appropriate, and show the electric membrane potential using “+”s (pluses) on one side and “-”s (minuses) on the other side of the membrane. Also show the proton pump which uses ATP as a source of energy.arrow_forward
