AP Bio Chapter 5 Flashcards
(49 cards)
cholesterol
lipid found in cell membrane
regulates fluidity n cell at different temps
Amphipathic molecules
both hydrophobic and hydrophillic
integral
embedded
peripheral
in cytoplasm
receptor proteins
shape that allow for specific molecule to bind that then causes protein to change shape bringing cellular response
enzymatic proteins
enzymes in membrane
junction protein
junctions in animal cells that going cells together and allow signalling
non polar
able to cross membrane
polar
can not cross membrane
channel proteins
passing particular molecules through membrane
carrier proteins
receive specific substances change shape and carry specific molecules across
cell recognition proteins
glycoproteins that help recognize different cells including foreign cells
glycolipids
sugar attached to phosopholipids (carb marker on head of phospholipd)
glycoproteins
sugar attached to proteins
glycocalyx
“sugar coat”, protects cells, cell to cell adhesion, signaling and cell to cell recognition
selectively permeable
only certain substances in or out
in order to pass through the membrane substances need to be
non polar (no charge)and small
concentration gradient
high to low
aquaporins
channel proteins that allow water to cross
bulk transport
large particles (macromolecules) exit or enter using endocytosis or exocytosis
diffusion
High to low (no energy)
solution
solvent (water) and solute (solid/ usually the thing that spreads)
osmosis
diffusion of water
osmotic pressure
pressure in system due to osmosis
