Q

Membrane proteins

A

Intergral—-> firmly inserted into membrane
Periphral——> loosely attached to intergral proteins are embedded in lipid bilayer

Q

Simple diffusion

A

nonpolar lipid- soluble substances diffuses directly through phospholipid layers. (ex.o2 through phospholipid bilayer)

Q

Facilitated diffusion

A

certain lipophobic molecules(glucose, amino acids) use carrier proteins or channel proteins( ex. movement of glucose into cells)

16
Q

Tonicity

A

ability of a solution to cause a cell to shrink or swell

17
Q

Isotonic

A

solution with same solute conc. as that of cytosol ( cell stays same)

18
Q

Hypertonic

A

solution having a greater solute conc. then cytosol (cell shrinks)

19
Q

Hypotonic

A

solution have a lesser solute conc. then cytosol (cell expands)

20
Q

Hypernatremia

A

increased water and sweat loss——> needs isotonic

21
Q

Hyponatremia

A

large water ingestion——> hypertonic solution needed

22
Q

Active processes

A

uses ATP to move solutes across a living plasma membrane

23
Q

Endocytosis

A

bring particles into the cell

24
Q

Exocytosis

A

secondary lysosome or secretory vesicle from golgi

25
Receptors and signals
signal reception------>signal transduction------->Response
26
Phosphorylation
transfer of phosphate groups to different proteins in the cell Achieved with enzymes called Kinases
