A busy student pours herself a cup of coffee and adds a sugar cube. A moment later the phone rings so she doesn't have time to stir it. Ten minutes later she returns to her coffee, and when she tastes it, it is obvious that the sugar has dissolved and that the coffee is uniformly sweet. What happened?

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
  1. Osmosis has caused the sugar molecules to move down the concentration gradient until they were evenly distributed in the coffee.

  2. Facilitated diffusion has occurred and has caused the sugar molecules to dissolve in the coffee.

  3. Diffusion has occurred in the coffee causing the sugar to become evenly distributed.

  4.  Active transport has occurred using the heat in the coffee as a source of energy.

The dimensions of living cells are limited, on the lower end by the minimum number of biomolecules necessary for function, and on the upper end by the rate of diffusion of solutes such as oxygen. Except for highly elongated cells, they usually have lengths and diameters in the range of
