Facilitated diffusion and active transport both shows transport saturation.

Facilitated diffusion and active transport both are affected by inhibitors those react with protein side chain of transporters.

Which of these properties are seen in both facilitated diffusion as well as active transport ? I. Requires ATP for energy . II. Highly selective process . III. Occurs against the concentration gradient. IV. There occurs transport saturation .

Read the following statements and select the correct option. Statement A: Polar molecules can move across the membrane by the process of simple diffusion along the concentration gradient. Statement B: The nuclear matrix or nucleoplasm contains nucleolus and chromatin.

How many of the following statement(s) is/are true regarding plant water relations? A. A mature corn plant absorbs almost three litres of water in three hours only while a mustard plant absorbs water equal to its own weight in about five hours. B.Diffusion is a slow process and is dependent on a 'living system'. C.When a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water moves out first from the cytoplasm and then from the vacuole. D. All solutions have a higher water potential than pure water due to dissolution of solutes.

Read the following statements and select the correct option. Statement (i)Pure water has the highest water potential, i.e. zero. Statement (ii)Process of diffusion does not require any input of energy. Statement (iii)Water moves from the system containing water at higher water potential to the one having lower water potential.

Study the statements (a-d) given below & select the correct option w.r.t transport in plants. (a) Transpiration pull model is the most acceptable to explain the transport of water. (b) The translocation in phloem is not explained by pressure flow hypothesis. (c) Diffusion is a slow process and is dependent on a 'living system'. (d) A C4 plant loses only half as much water as a C3 plant for the same amount of Co2 fixed.

Read the following statements carefully - (A) The lipid component of the plasma membrane mainly consists of phosphoglycerides. (B) Polar molecules can pass through the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane, therefore they do not require carrier proteins to facilitate their transport. (C ) The secondary wall is capable of growth and it is formed on the outer side of the primary wall. (D) Quasifluid nature of lipid enables the lateral movement of proteins within the overall lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane. (E) Middle lamella glues the different neighbouring cells together. How many statements are incorrect?
