Question
Answer
plasma membrane   surrounds all living cells; made of phospholipids and proteins; selectively permeable  
🗑
diffusion   movement of molecules down their concentration gradient  
🗑
passive transport   diffusion across a membrane  
🗑
osmosis   difussion of water  
🗑
which way do water diffuse down its concentration gradient?   from high to low concentration  
🗑
osmoregulation   control of water balance  
🗑
hyperosmotic solution   higher concentration of solutes than the cell  
🗑
hypoosmotic solution   lower concentration of solutes than the cell  
🗑
isotonic solution   equal concentration of solutes as the cell  
🗑
why can't ion diffuse through like water?   because its charged  
🗑
active transport   molecules are pumped across a membrane against a concentration gradient  
🗑
2 type of active transport channel   sodium-potassium pump and proton pump  
🗑
in the sodium potassium pump, what gets pump in, what gets pump out?   Na out, K in  
🗑
proton pump   opump protons across membranes  
🗑
what purprose does a proton pump serve?   manufacture ATP with the power of proton pushing through channels  
🗑
chemiosmosis   protons diffuse back across membrane through channels that use the force of the proton pushing through to make ATP  
🗑
exocytosis   discharge of material from vesicles at the cell surface  
🗑
endocytosis   plasma membrane envelops particles and bring them into the cell interior  
🗑
3 major forms of endocytosis   phagocytosis, pinocytosis, receptor mediated  
🗑
phagocytosis   engulfment of particulate material  
🗑
pinocytosis   engulfment of liquid material  
🗑
receptor-mediated endocytosis   this is how cholesterol gets into animal cell;  
🗑
how do cell communicate with each other   via chemical signals across their cell membranes  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
