anaerobic respiration
- makes energy without oxygen
- can keep you alive for a short amount of time until you can get enough oxygen to make more ATP through cellular respiration
fermentation
- less ATP molecules formed than in aerobic respiration
* two types: lactic acid and alcohol fermentation
lactic acid fermentation
- temporary
* lactic acid builds up causing a burning, painful sensation
alcohol fermentation
•occurs in yeast and some bacteria
cell membrane and bilayer notes
- hydrophilic (polar/waterloving)
* hydrophobic (nonpolar/water hating)
cell membrane functions
- holds cell together
- protection
- lets certain substances in and out of cell
- anything that is polar can not move through the membrane
solvent vs solute
solvent- LIQUID that dissolved a solute
solute- SOLID dissolved by a solvent
passive transport
- molecules move from high to low concentration
* no energy used
diffusion
the movement of molecules from an area of HIGH to LOW concentration
osmosis
- movement of water by passive diffusion across a selectively permeable membrane
- high to low water potential
- moves to equilibrium
u-shaped tubes
- ratio of solvent to solute wants to be balanced
* reach equilibrium
facilitated diffusion
•large molecules move from high to low concentration through carrier proteins or channel proteins
active transport
- energy needed to be added to system
* low to high concentration
elodea lab:
what happened to the elodea leaf under normal
conditions?
•spread out chloroplasts
elodea lab:
what happened to the chloroplast when:
adding saline solution
clumped together in the center of the cell
•water molecules rushing into the cell
elodea lab:
what happened to the chloroplast when:
adding distilled water
pushed outward, near the cell wall
•the cell expands because water is being added
glycolysis reactants
