(4 cards)
1
Q
CC Membrane Components
A
- Phospholipid bilayer forms SPONTANESOULSY
- Membrane Proteins
Determine Membrane functions
Move only laterally - Membrane Protein Functions
Transport
Enzymes
Signal transduction
2
Q
CC Types of membrane Transport (2)
A
Passive
Active
3
Q
Passive Transport (NO ATP Required) (Goes down with gradient)
A
- Simple diffusion
Small gases: O2, CO2, N2, nonpolar, and uncharged molecules - Osmosis
Water travels to more solute
Hypertonic: Sucked
Isotonic: =
Hypotonic: Bloated - Facilitated diffusion (uses proteins)
Carries large molecules (H+ Na+ Ca2+)
Channel Protein (Tunnel)
Carrier Protein (grabber)
4
Q
Active Transport (ATP Required) (Goes against the gradient)
A
- Pump/Carrier
Require ATP
sodium/potassium pumps - Bulk Transport
Requirement ATP
Moves large molecule at once
Exocytosis “Out”
Vesicles Fuses with PM and release contents
Fusing is one way to grow PM
Endocytosis “In”
Vesicle form with PM and brings contents
Phagocytosis “Eating”
Pinocytosis “drinking”
Receptor-mediated “specific”
