QuestionAnswer
Containment, Seperation, Metabolism, Exchange, Recognition, Irritability, and Selective Permeability are all functions of? Cell Membrane
What is the basic unit of structure & function of living things? Cell
Lipid Bilayer with proteins scattered among them, allows substances to enter and exit the cell? Cell Membrane
What are the main molecules? phospholipids
Can occasionaly be found between phospholipids, helps stabilize the membrane by giving it less fluidity. Cholesterol
Can be twister and coiled at the outer or inner surface or solid and pass thru the entire membrane. can also be receptors Protein
What are mixed molecules called? Conjugated molecules

Which function will allow only some substances in or out of the cell. Selective Permeability
The ability to get in or out easily between phospholipids is called? Lipid Soluble
In order to get out it must hit a protein and is unable to penetrate the hydrophobic interior of the membrane. Water Soluble

the net movement of water across a selective permeable membrane also going from greater to lesser concentration is ? Osmosis
3 types of osmosis? Isotonic, Hypertonic, Hypotonic
A solution with similar concentration and molecular particles, where no osmosis occurs is? Isotonic
A salty, concentrated colution, making the cell more watery and causing the cell to shrink is? Hypertonic

Found in plant cells, causes the cell to swell? Turgor
Found in animal cells, causes cell to swell and burst? Bursting
Diffusion that requires a carrier protein and does not need any special energy; Pore protein channels are always open and lined with AA's containing specific charge, that allow only certain molecules to enteror exit. Facillitated Diffusion
Requires a carrier protein, changes shape when ATP binds to it, requires special energy, go from lesser to greater concentration, also known as pumps. Active Transport
Narrow protein channels are closed,hormones or neurotransmitter bind to a receptor on the cell, causes the gate to open and let small molecules pass. Chemical Sensitive Gated Channels
Narrow protein channels are closed, AA's lining the gate are charged, a wave of opposite charged voltage come down the membrane, attracting charges open the gate and small molecules may pass. Voltage Sensitive Gated Channels
A small molecule attaches to a carrier protein, is then carried thru the membrane and let out the other side. Mobile Carriers
