Cell Transport and membrane activity

QuestionAnswer
Channel Proteins Allows particular molecules or ions to cross the plasma. This is a passive transport.
Carrier Proteins Selectively interacts with a specific molecule or ion so that it can cross the plasma membrane. Active Plasma Transport.
Cell Recognition Protein Has glycoproteins attached that are major histocompatibility complex (MHC) that are different for each person. "Self, Not Self."
Receptor Proteins Can only bind to specific molecules based on their shape.
Enzymatic Proteins Catalyzes as specific reaction. Increases chemical reactions.
Junction Proteins Tight junctions join cells so that a tissue can fulfill a function.
Three types of Passive Diffusion Simple, Facilitated, Osmosis
Tonicity relative solute concentrations across membranes.
Isotonic Equal - water moves but concentrations remain the same
Hypertonic High tonicity concentrations move from high to low
Hypotonic Low Tonicity - concentrations move from high to low.
active transport goes against concentration gradient From low to high concentration. ATP used for energy
passive transport no energy diffusion
Facilitated Diffusion uses transport proteins to cross membrane. Channel Proteins and Carrier Proteins
Simple Diffusion no energy molecules move along their concentration gradient until equilibrium is reached.
Osmosis Only water can pass thru Aquaporin Proteins
Bulk Transport Requires energy. Macromolecules passed into / out of membrane uses Vesicles to move in and out of cell.
Types of Bulk Transport Exocytosis and Endocytosis
3 types of Endocytosis Phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and Receptor mediated endocytosis
EFM Extra Cellular Fluid
ECM Extra Cellular Matrix

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
