Q. No.In section 11.1.2, NCERT states that a concentration gradient needs to be present in spite of the fact that facilitated diffusion is facilitated by a carrier. Why is it so?
1. These protein carriers have ATPase activity.
2. These protein carriers can not move in the membrane.
3. These protein carriers can not establish concentration gradients.
4. These protein carriers can provide only symport with the use of external energy.

Identify the incorrect statement regarding aquaporins:
1. Water channels are transmembrane proteins made up of eight different types of aquaporins.
2. Water moves most rapidly in tissues that have aquaporin water channels.
3. The presence of water channels increases membrane permeability to water.
4. Aquaporins selectively conduct water molecules in and out of the cell but allow some passage of protons.

Study the given figure where five beakers filled with a solution have a bag with solution of certain molarity suspended in each of them. The bags are made up of semi-permeable membranes.
What would be the correct order of the beakers in order of the mass of bags after 30 minutes have been allowed to run the experiment [bag with smallest mass to be placed first]?
1. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
2. 1, 5, 2, 3, 4
3. 4, 3, 2, 5, 1
4. 2, 1, 5, 3, 4
What is incorrect regarding apoplast transport in plants?
1. The apoplast is formed by the continuum of cell walls of adjacent cells as well as the extracellular spaces.
2. Transport velocity is lower in the apoplast than in the symplast.
3. Apoplast transport also accounts for a higher proportion of water transport in plant tissues than does symplastic transport.
4. The apoplastic pathway is also involved in passive exclusion.
