| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| what does selectively permeable mean? | allows some substances to pass but not others |
| what passes easily through lipid bilayer? | O2, CO2, steroids |
| what requires transport proteins? | ions and large non-lipid soluble molecules |
| passive transport types? | diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion |
| active transport types? | primary and secondary active transport |
| vesicular transport types? | endocytosis, exocytosis, transcytosis |
| definition of diffusion? | net movement from high to low concentration |
| what si a concentration gradient? | difference in concentration between two areas |
| factors affecting diffusion rate? | gradient, temperature, size, viscosity |
| osmosis definition? | diffusion of water across a membrane |
| what are aquaporins? | water channels |
| isotonic solution effect? | no cell size change |
| hypertonic solution effect? | cell shrinks (crenation) |
