25
diffusion across a lipid bilayer
simple diffusion
26
how is diffusion across a lipid bilayer controlled
the surface area of the membrane and the thickness of the membrane, concentration gradient, molecular wieght, -- FICKS LAW OF DIFFUSION
27
tonicity
the effect a solution has on cell volume (non penetration solutes)
28
hypotonic
more solute inside and SWELL
29
hypertonic
more solute outside and SHRINK
30
facilitated diffusion
passitve transport (down concentration gradient)
31
example of facilitated diffusion
transport of glucose into a cell
32
difference bw carrier mediated transprt and simple diffusion
carrier mediated is directly proportional to concentration gradient until the carrier is saturated
33
NA K pump how many in and out
3 Na out 2 K in
34
phagocytosis
actin mediated process by which a cell engulfs a particle into a large membrane bound vesicle called a phagosome
35
what produces and packages materials for secrection
ER and golgi complex
36
what requires exocytosis
secretion of horomes or enzymes, addition of compoenents to membrane, membrane recycling
37
what regulates the release of secretory vesicles
intracellular Ca2+
38
what is membrane potential influenced by
permeability of a few important ions
39
where does seperation of charge take place
across the membrane
40
what determines membrane potential
1. concentration of ions inside and outside 2. permability 3. activity of electrogenc pumps
41
potential
separation of charge
42
where are the negative charged proteins that are impermeable in the cell membrane
inside the cell
43
what is membrane potential measured in
milivolts
44
resting membrane potential
-70, minus means cells is negative on inside
45
permability of Na
moderate
46
permeability of k
high
47
permeabiity of A-
no permeability
48
eqm potential for k
-90
49
eqm potential for Na
+60
50
equilibrium potential
in a cell that is permeable to just one ion, the membrane potential that exactly opposes the concentration gradient
51
why is the membrane potential closer to that of k and not Na
becasue at rest the membrane is 50-75x more permeable to k so it infleunces the resting membrane portential to a greater extent
52
concentration of Cl
higher in ECF
53
permeability of Cl
high
54
eqm potentioa of Cl
-70
55
depolarization
net inward flow of +ve ions
56
hyperpolarization
net outward flow of +ve ions
57
repolarization
returning to resting potential after being deporalized
58
types of gated channels
1. voltage 2. chemically 3. mechanically 4. thermally
59
2 types of electric signals
1. graded 2. action
60
graded potentials
local changed in membrane potential in small specialized region of excitable cell membranes produced by triggering events. magnitude and duration is related to magnitude and duration of triggering event
61
what kind of gated channels for graded potentials
chemically or mechanically
62
how can depolarixation spread from a trigger zone
by local current
63
can current loss occur across the membrane
ye
64
signalling distance of graded potential
limited due to currrent loss but graded potentials can sum to initiate action potentials
65
equation used to calculate the resting membrane potential at 37
GHK equation
