| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the function of the plasmodesmata junction? 5.2 | permit diffusion of water, ions, RNA, and proteins between connected cells. |
| What is the difference between cell recognition and cell adhesion? 5.2 | Cell recognition is when 1 cell specifically binds to another certain type of cell, while cell adhesion is simply when the connection between cells is stregnthened. |
| In most cells binding in tissues is ________ . 5.2 | homotypic- the same molecule sticks out of both cells , and the exposed surfaces bind to each other. |
| What is the difference between diffusion and osmosis? 5.3 | diffusion is the process of random towards a state of equilibrium,and osmosis is the diffusion of water across membranes. |
| What is turgor pressure? 5.3 | an internal pressure against the cell wall that prevents further water from entering (keeps plants upright and is the driving force for the enlargment of plant cells. |
| Why are carrier proteins needed?5.3 | to transport polar molecules like amio acids and sugars. |
| What is the differnce between primary and secondary active transport?5.4 | primary requires direct ATP and secondary does not require ATP directly(supplied by ion concentration gradientmade by primary) |
| How many Na+ does the sodium potassium pump take in? K+? 5.4 | 3;2 |
| Why is exocytosis different from the other process types? 5.5 | it moves materials OUT of the cell |
| What kind of cells use phagocytosis?pinocytisis? 5.5 | unicellular protists and white blood cells; endothelium |
| Why do cells use receptor mediated endocytosis?5.5 | to capture specific macromolecules from the cell's environment. |
| What happens to red blood cells in a hypertonic solution? wildcard | cells lose water and shrivel |
