Q

What is a concentration gradient?

A

Substances will naturally move from HIGH to LOW concentration.Eventually, an equilibrium would be reached (no gradient remaining).

Q

What is Facilitated Diffusion?

A

When molecules can’t go directly across a membrane, so they pass through special protein channels

Q

What is Osmosis?

A

Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane Through the membrane directly and in larger quantities through aquaporins Water will move across a membrane until the concentration of solute is the same on both sides!Solute vs. SolventSugar can’t move across the membrane by itself, it’s too large

Q

What is Dynamic Equilibrium?

A

The substances will continue to move, but there is no net change in concentration on either side! Movement doesn’t stop entirely!

Q

What is the optimal solution for an animal cell?

A

Isotonic Solution

18
Q

What is the optimal solution for a plant cell?

A

Hypotonic Solution

19
Q

What are the types of active transport?

A

Selective and Bulk Transport

20
Q

What is Selective Transport?

A

Small molecules, ionsProteins in membrane are used

21
Q

What is Bulk Transport?

A

Large molecules, clumps of materialsMovements of the cell membrane itself

22
Q

What are the types of bulk transport?

A

Endocytosis and Exocytosis

23
Q

What is Endocytosis?

A

“endo” = withinMaterial is taken into cell by infolding of the cell membranePhagocytosis and Pinocytosis

24
Q

What is Phagocytosis?

A

taking up particles and packing within food vacuole“cell eating”

25
Q

What is Pinocytosis?

A

= taking up liquid from surrounding environment“cell drinking”

26
Q

What is Exocytosis?

A

“exo” = out ofMaterial is released from the cell by vesicle fusing with membraneSignaling molecules, waste, toxins, etc.

27
Q

What is the Primary Active Transport?

A

Uses ATP as the energy source. A very common example is the sodium-potassium pump!

28
Q

What is the Secondary Active Transport?

A

Uses the energy stored in electrochemical gradients Ions have charges, and when there’s an imbalance in charges on either side of the membrane, there is a membrane potentialThe combination of concentration and membrane potential = electrochemical gradient!BOTH will affect which way things move across the membraneSo, a primary active transport protein can set up this electrochemical gradient, which the secondary active transport protein can then use!

29
Q

What is Uniport?

A

Passive transport or primary active transport1 direction of travel, 1 thing traveling

30
Q

What is Symport?

A

1 direction of travel, 2 things traveling

31
Q

What is Antiport?

A

2 directions of travel, 2 things traveling

32
Q

What do Symport and Antiport have in common?

A

Cotransport
