| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Turgor Pressure | internal pressure exerted on the cell membrane from the vacuole that keeps the plant rigid |
| Osmosis | movement of water across a permeable membrane |
| Membrane Potential | difference in electrical charge of the inside and outside of cell |
| isotonic, hypotonic, hypertonic? | isotonic- same solute hypotonic- weaker solute concentration hypertonic- stronger solute concentration |
| Carrier Protein | protein that binds to transported substances- allow travel in and out of the cell |
| process of the sodium potassium pump | 3 NA+ and 1 ATP bind to the protein pump- AT hydrolosis changes protein's shape- shape change releases NA+ and allows K to bind and make phosphate |
| tight junction | tightly sealed- does not allow matter to flow between- found in epitheleal cells |
| exocytosis | when material in vacuoles is released through the cell membrane out of the cell |
| selective permeability | allows some substances to pass through while restricting others |
| Aquaporins | transport proteins through osmosis |
| uniports, symports, antiports? | uniports- move single substance in one direction symports- two substances in the same direction antiports- two substances in opposite directions |
| passive/active transport? | passive-energy is not needed to move substances through a membrane active-energy is needed for larger molecules |
| desmosomes | found in eukaryotic animal cells- allows material to pass through- protein |
| receptor mediated endycytosis | receptor protein binds to a ligand and forms a coating around molecule- brings into cell |
| cell recognition/adhesion? | important processes in the cell membrane |
| glycoprotein | helps with cell adhesion |
| Active Transport | diffusion across a membrane where energy is needed |
| simple/facilitated diffusion | simple- small molecules through a membrane facilitated- large molecules (both no energy) |
| diffusion | random movement of molecules to achieve isotonic |
| plasmodesmata | plant cells-uses integral proteins- information channel |
| phago/pinocytosis? | phago-eating pino-drinking |
