Biology 9 - TAM
Honors Biology Grade 9, Chapter 5 Part 2: Transport Across Membranes
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Structure of a cell membrane | phospholipid bilayer |
| What does the of process of synthesizing ATP to ADP + Pi do? | stores energy in a way that provides for cellular work |
| Energy | the capacity to perform work |
| Endergonic reactions | require energy and produce energy rich products |
| Exergonic reactions | release energy |
| Enzymes | decrease energy of Ea activation needed to begin a reaction |
| Inhibitors | compete with substrate for the active site |
| Membrane | protects and is selectively permeable |
| Passive transport | moves cells from high concentration to low concentration without any cell work |
| Osmosis | diffusion of water |
| Facilitated diffusion | transport proteins provide passage for ions and polar molecules |
| Active transport | moves solutes against concentration gradient |
