Question
Answer
cell membranes are composed primarily of ?   proteins and lipids  
🗑
approximate percentage that is proteins and lipids   55%protein , 25% phospholipid, 13% cholesterol , 4 % other lipids, and 3% carbohydrates  
🗑
2 types of lipids   phosopholipids and cholesterol  
🗑
what is meant by lipid bilayer?   fat soluble molecules can pass through it  
🗑
as a general rule is the lipid barrier water soluble?   yes  
🗑
fluid mossiac model   bi layer is fluid not rigid molecules may move latertally  
🗑
most proteins in the cell membrane are?   glycoproteins  
🗑
integral proteins are?   passes all the way through the cm. channel , enzymes, and carrier proteins  
🗑
peripheral prteins are?   attached only to the surface of the cell membrane. usually an enzyme  
🗑
endocytosis is?   the movement of molecules into a cell that are too large to enter. pinocytosis,phagocytosis,and receptor-mediated  
🗑
exocytosis is?   the reverse of endocytosis  
🗑
what 2 general processes do small molecules use to pass through a cell membrane?   diffusion and active transport  
🗑
diffusion is?   the net moveemoent of molecules higher to lower. 3 factors effecting this are: magnitude of cencentration gradient,permability of the cmto the diffusing, and surface area.  
🗑
is a carrier protein required for simple diffusion?   no  
🗑
2 types of simple diffusion   direct movement through the cm and movement through watery channels  
🗑
do all types of channels use simple diffusion?   yes  
🗑
osmosis is   the flow of water molecule through a selectively permiable membrane from ares of greater to lesser concentration.  
🗑
osmosis conditions   2 compartments of water, seperated by selectivly permiable membrane, concentration difference  
🗑
will non permiable particle pass through the membrane?   no  
🗑
osmotic preassure   the amount of preassure that must be applies to prevent the flow of water during osmosis  
🗑
what determines the magnitude of osmotic preassure?   concentration of solute to the # of solvent the greater solute the greater OP  
🗑
3 ways to increase solute concentration?   increase # of particles, decrease # of solvent  
🗑
2 formulas for concentration?   molarity=moles/liters osmolarity=osmoles/liters  
🗑
how many molecules of a given compound are there in one mole?   6.02*10 ^ 23  
🗑
how many in one osmole?   6.02 * 10^23  
🗑
formula for molarity to osmolarity?   molarity X number of particles/molecule=osm  
🗑
osmolarity   describes the # of particles per liter of solution  
🗑
isomotic   the osmolarity of 2 solutions are the same  
🗑
hyperosmotic   the osm. of the first is greater then the second  
🗑
hyposmotic   the osm of the first is less then the second  
🗑
tonicity   term that describes what happens to the cell volume when the cell is placed in solution  
🗑
tonicity depends on what?   comparisson of osm of the solution to cell and nature of the particles  
🗑
crenation   to shrink  
🗑
hemolysis   to rupture  
🗑
what requires the push for facillitated diffusion?   concentration gradient and carrier protein is needed  
🗑
active transport?   movement of ions or molecules from an area of lesser to greater  
🗑
cotransporter (symport)   same direction  
🗑
counter transporter (antiport)   different directions  
🗑
what are the intrinsic controol mechanisms of cellular metabolism?   genetic regulation, enzyme activity  
🗑
exocrine   enters a tube that lead to a free surface  
🗑
endocrine   goes directly into the blood  
🗑
hormone   chemical substance realeased into blood  
🗑
classification of hormones by structure   dirivapolypeptides and glycoproteins tives of amino acid tyrosine, steroids  
🗑
why do some cells respond to hormones?   b/c of receptors  
🗑
alternate names for ant and post pituitary   adenohypophysis and neurohypophysis  
🗑
what controls secretion from endocrine gland?   intrinsic control mechanisms  
🗑
what is meant by down and up regulation?   decrease in # of receptors and increase  
🗑
another name for growth hormone?   somatotropin  
🗑
catabolic effect of GH?   direct effect  
🗑
anabolic effect of GH?   indirect effect  
🗑
somatomedians   insulin like growth factors  
🗑
gigantism   excessive GH in children  
🗑
acromegaly   excessive GH in adults  
🗑
what hormones are produced by thyroid?   t3(active) t4 thyroid hormones TSH  
🗑
t3 causes   stimulates protein synthesis needed for growth premotes developement helps set the basale metabolic rate  
🗑
two regions of adrenal gland   medulla and cortex  
🗑
adrenal gland   releases epinephrine  
🗑
function of aldosterone   helps regulate sodium and potassium  
🗑
whats releases glucagon and the effects   secreated in response to blood glucose levels, glycogenolysis,glucogenesis, and lipolysis  
🗑
what stimulates the release of insulin   increase blood glucose levels,  
🗑
effects of insulin   needed for movement of glucose liver adipose tissue inhibits secretion of glucogen  
🗑
sensitivity to insulin receptors   increased by excersise decreased by obesity and pregnancy  
🗑
symptoms of diabetes   cronic high blood glucose  
🗑
different form of diabetes   insulin dependant and non insulin dependant  
🗑
