Regarding the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane, one of the following is wrong:
Lipid-soluble substances cannot move freely through it
It is a thin and pliable, almost entirely made of proteins and lipids
Prevents mixing of ECF & ICF
Water and water-soluble substances cannot move freely through it
Water, ions and watersoluble substances are transported through proteins
According to Fick’s law, the rate of diffusion depends on all of the following except:
The concentration gradient
The permeability of the membrane to a substance
The surface area of the membrane
The molecular weight of a substance
The shape of a substance
Which of the following relation is correct?
When concentration gradient of a substance decreases, rate of diffusion increases
When permeability of membrane to substance increases, rate of diffusion decreases
When surface area of membrane increases, rate of diffusion increases
When molecular weight of substance decreases, rate of diffusion decreases
When distance (Thickness) increases, rate of Diffusion increases

B is identical to A, in osmolarity
B is isotonic compared with A
B is hypotonic compared with A
Two answers are correct
B is hypertonic compared with A

12000
6000
7400
4000

Decrease
No change
Decrease and the increase
Increase
Increase and then decrease

Which of the following substances permeates the membrane more readily than water molecule?
Carbon dioxid
Glucose
Glycerol
Urea
Sodium
One of the following is a correct match:
Hypoaldosteronism => hypo osmotic over hydration
Diabetes insipidus => hyperosmotic dehydration
Congestive heart failure => hypo osmotic dehydration
Over use of diuretics => hyperosmotic dehydration
All of the flowing cause hypernatremia except:
Heavy sweating
Primary aldosteronism
Addison’s disease
Diabetes insipidus
Cushing’s syndrome
Osmotic pressure inside the capillary is caused by:
The blood flow inside the capillary
Plasma proteins
The interstitial fluid

A solution that contains 300 mmoles of NaCl is considered:
Isotonic
Hypotonic
Normotonic
Hypertonic
If we lose NaCl more than water:
We will have hypo osmotic dehydration
We will have hypo osmotic over hydration
We will have hyper osmotic dehydration
The osmolarity will not change

Sodium
Chloride
Oxygen
Water
Calcium
