_ 9. Cilia and flagella are used to move cells through watery environments. What role do these cell parts play on
stationary cells?
a. They hold neighboring cells in a fixed position.
b. They move substances along the surface of the cell.
c. They protect the cell by whipping at harmful cells.

_ 10. A scientist at the polar ice cap was studying an ice sample from hundred of meters below the surface. While
examining the ice, the scientist found some cells from many years ago. Using an electron microscope, the
scientist identified these cell structures: a cytoskeleton, mitochondrion, nucleus, cell wall, and ribosomes.
What kind of organism did the scientist find?
a. animal c. plant
b. bacteria d. He did not have enough information.
_ 11. Chloroplasts are organelles that convert light energy to sugars. These organelles are found only in plants.
Which organelles are found only in animals?
a. golgi apparatus c. mitochondria
b. lysosomes d. ribosomes
_ 12. At what point in the process of diffusion is dynamic equilibrium reached?
a. when the movement of the molecules stops being random
b. when the molecules are mixed and stop moving
c. when the rate of change in the solution slows by one half
d. when there is continuous movement but no change
_ 13. What is a major difference between facilitated diffusion and active transport?
a. Active transport moves substances against the concentration gradient.
b. Active transport uses proteins in the process.
c. Facilitated diffusion moves molecules through the plasma membrane.
d. Facilitated diffusion requires large amounts of energy.
14. Algal cells are placed in an isotonic solution. Additional amounts of solutes are slowly added to the solution.
What happens to the cells?
a. They will begin to swell. c. They will stay the same.
