#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
  1. They must block water and small molecules to regulate the exchange of matter and energy with their environment.

  2. They must provide a rigid structure that maintains an appropriate ratio of cell surface area to volume. 

  3. They are constructed of materials that are synthesized in the cytoplasm and then transported out of the cell for assembly.

  4. They are composed of a mixture of lipids and nucleotides.

The non-reducing sugar sucrose is most commonly translocated in the phloem rather than reducing sugar. Why?
a.) because they are less reactive than their reducing counterparts
b.) because sucrose contains more energy than a monosaccharides
c.) because the ketone or aldehyde group is reduced to an alcohol or combined with a similar group on another sugar so as not to be oxidized

Phloem loading in the apoplastic pathway thought to mediate the transport of sucrose from the apoplast into the sieve element– companion cell complex. Which of the following  are involved in such sucrose transporting by apoplast?
a) Sucrose is at a higher concentration in the sieve element–companion cell complex indicates that sucrose is actively transported against its chemical-potential gradient
b) Sugars transport from the apoplast into the sieve elements and companion cells energy driven process
c) Phloem loading in the apoplastic pathway involves a sucrose–H+ symporter
d) the route of phloem loading is−mesophyll cells→ bundle sheath cells→ phloem parenchyma cell→ ordinary companion cell→ sieve elements
Which of the following is incorrect?
