Why are biological membranes considered to be “fluid mosaics”?
- Discuss two factors that may determine membrane fluidity.
- Draw labeled diagrams to illustrate: the Fluid-mosaic model of biological membranes three types of transport proteins
- How does ATP provide chemical energy for active transport?
- Discuss similarities and differences between any of the following pairs: soluble (globular) proteins vs. integral membrane proteins ,channel proteins vs. carrier proteins, active transport vs. facilitated diffusion ion pumps vs. ion channels and endocytosis vs. exocytosis
- Explain (in words) membrane transport mechanisms such as: H+ pumps, Na+ channels, aquaporins or glucose transporters.
Please be as clear and detailed as possible

Diffusion Is a passive process of transport. A single substance tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until the concentration is equal across a space. Facilitated transport Facilitated diffusion is the process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a biological membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins. Channels The integral proteins involved in facilitated transport are collectively referred to as transport proteins, and they...
