B) utilize glycolysis for oxidative energy.

C) extract energy from organic compounds.

D) store calcium bonds for muscle contractions.


3. Although the basic structure of the cell plasma membrane is formed by a
lipid bilayer, most of the specific membrane functions are carried out by:

A) bound and transmembrane proteins.

B) complex, long carbohydrate chains.

C) surface antigens and hormone receptors.

D) a gating system of selective ion channels.


4. To effectively relay signals, cell-to-cell communication utilizes chemical
messenger systems that:
