cube-shaped
Kidney Tubule Cells
biconcave disc
Red Blood Cells
cellular eating
Phagocytosis
cellular drinking
Pinocytosis
cellular uptake of large substances from external environment (phagocytosis, pinocytosis, receptor mediated endocytosis)
Endocytosis
movement of small ions or molecules through water filled protein (channels specific for one ion type)
Channel-mediated diffusion
transport protein required for movement of ions or polar molecules
Facilitated Diffusion
no transport protein required for movement of small, non polar molecules
Simple Diffusion
movement of ions or molecules from areas of high to low concentration
Diffusion
- requires energy
- substance must be moved up its concentration gradient (active transport)
-membrane-bound vesicle must be released (vesicular transport)
Active Process
irregular-shaped
Nerve Cells
study of cells
Cytology
large substances secreted from cell
Exocytosis
- also called bulk transport
- involves energy input to transport large substances using a vesicle
Vesicular Transport
uses energy directly from breakdown of ATP
Primary Active Transport
ion or small molecule moved against its concentration gradient
Active Transport
cell shrinks
Crenation
balloon with 2 tails
Phospholipids
- cytosol stores temporarily
- molecules added to and removed from continuously
Inclusions
is the capacity to do work
Energy
energy of position or stored energy
Potential Energy
energy of motion
Kinetic Energy
energy stored in a molecules chemical bonds, released when bonds are broken
Chemical Energy
molecules that function in chemical energy storage
- Triglycerides
- Glucose
- ATP
