25
Disolving medium Typically water in the body
Solvent
26
Components in smaller quantities within a solution
Solute
27
The difference in the concentration of a solute in a solvent between two points divided by the distance between the two points
Concentration Gradient
28
Passive movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
Diffusion
29
3 Condition that molecules will move by diffusion
1. Molecules are small enough to pass through the membrane's pores (channels formed by membrane proteins) (FD) 2. The molecules are lipid-soluble (D) 3. The molecules are assisted by a membrane carrier (FD)
30
Types of Cell Membrane Channel
Leak Channels Gated Channels
31
Constantly allow ions to pass through
Leak channels
32
Limit the movement of ions across the membrane by opening and closing
Gated channels
33
Diffusion of water across selectively permeable membrane, such as the cell membrane, from a region of higher water concentration to one of lower water concentration
Osmosis
34
Pressure created by water moving across the membrane due to osmosis
Osmotic Pressure
35
The more water moving across the membrane, the?
Higher the osmostic pressure
36
Diff. Solution
Hypotonic Solution Hypertonic Solution Isotonic Solution
37
where the water moves
Hypertonic areas
38
Lower solute concentration compared to the intracellular solute concentration lower concentration of solute than another solution, meaning water will flow out of it Swell
Hypotonic Solution
39
higher concentration of solute than another solution, meaning water will flow into it
Hypertonic solution
40
same solute concentration and water concentration compared to body fluids
Isotonic solution
41
Cell Swell
Hypotonic
42
Cell Shrink
Hypertonic
43
Cell neither shrink nor swell
Isotonic
44
Proteins within the cell membrane
Carrier molecules
45
Carrier molecules are involved in this mechanism which move large, water-soluble molecules or electrically charged ions across the cell membrane
Carrier-Mediated Transport Mechanism
46
It is where molecule to be transported bind on one side of the molecule
Specific Carrier Molecule
47
Carrier Mediated Trasport Mechanism Include:
Facilitated Diffusion and Active Transport
48
Exhibit specificity which means only specific molecules are transported by the carriers
Carrier Mediated Transport Mechanism
49
Does not require ATP for energy
Facilitated Diffusion
50
Does require ATP for transport
Active Transport
51
Carrier-mediated transport process that moves substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration with the help of a transport molecule
Facilitated Diffusion
52
Carrier-mediated process that moves substances across the cell membrane from regions of lower concentration to those of higher concentration against a concentration gradient
Active Transport
53
Primary Active Transport
NaK Pump
54
Moves Na+ out of cells and K+ into cell
Sodium-Potassium Pump
55
Sodium Potassium Pump is necessary for
Nerve Impulses
56
Result of Sodium-Potassium Pump
Higher Concentration of Sodium/Na+ outside cell Higher Concentration of Potassium/K+ inside cell
57
Secondary Active Transport
Cotransport Countertransport
58
The diffusing substance moves in the same direction as the transported substance
Cotransport
59
The diffusing substance moves in the direction opposite to that of the transported substance
Countertransport
60
Large water-soluble molecules, small pieces of matter, and even whole cells can be transported across cell membranes in membrane-bound sacs called
Vesicle
61
Uptake of material through the cell membrane by the formation of a vesicle
Endocytosis
62
Endocytosis
Receptor-Mediated Phagocytosis Pinocytosis
63
occurs when a specific substance binds to the receptor molecule and is transported into the cell
Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis
64
Used for endocytosis when solid particles are ingested Engulf large particles Protective mechanism, not a means of getting nutrients
Phagocytosis
65
Cell-Eating
Phagocytosis
66
Smaller vesicles are formed, they contain liquid rather than solid particles Plasma membrane forms a pit, and edges fuse around droplet of fluid Cell "gulps" droplets of extracellular fluid cobtaining dissolved protein or fats
Pinocytosis
67
Cell-Drinking
Pinocytosis
68
Process when secretory vesicles move to the cell membrane, where the membrane of the vesicle fuses with the cell membrane and the material in the vesicle is eliminated from the cell
Exocytosis
