Answer the following statements true (T) or false (F)

1. One function of cell walls in plants is to prevent the continual increase in the expansion of the cell membrane. 2. The plant cell can move substances into cells using proton pumps that work against a gradient. 3. Diffusion of water across membranes occurs through channels formed by proteins known as aquaporins. 4. Active transport in plants works against a concentration gradient and this allows for substances to pass through plant cells without an energy input. 5. If your plants are wilted, this is an indication that the turgor pressure in cells of that plant are low.
