| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Phospholipid Bilayer | Outer layer of a cell, semi permeable, Has Cholesterol and Proteins embedded in it. |
| Integral Membrane Proteins | Embedded in the membrane (“strawberries” in jello) |
| Peripheral Membrane Protein | On top of the membrane (“marshmallows” in jello) |
| Cholesterol | Gives mechanical strength to the membrane, maintains fluidity, is in the membrane with OH group sticking out |
| Selectively permeable | Only certain molecules can pass through membrane |
| Diffusion | When a solute moves from higher to lower concentration, down the concentration gradient, no energy input |
| Osmosis | When water moves from high concentration to low concentration of water, no energy input needed |
| Concentration | Amount of solute dissolved in a certain volume |
| Passive Transport | When solute moves down concentration gradient, from high to low, no energy input needed |
| Active Transport | When solute moves from low to high concentration of solute, solute moves against concentration gradient, transport protein required for movement of solute, Uses energy (can use ATP, light, ion gradient) |
| Direct Active Transport | Primary Active Transport (Low to High), Uses ATP, GTP, NADH, light |
| Indirect Active Transport | Secondary Active Transport, 2 part system |
| Exocytosis | Moves substances outside cell |
| Endocytosis | Moves substances inside of cell |
