Bio-Cellular Transpo

Bio- transport and homeostasis

QuestionAnswer
Plasma Membrane? maintains homeostasis by controlling what enters and leaves the cell
Phosopholipid Bilayer? 2 fatty acid tails; controls what enters and leaves the cell
Phosphate Head is hydrophilic
passive Transport high con. to low con.; down con. gradient; uses no energy
Simnple Diffusion (passive transport) gases H2O, Co2, O2
Which organelles are invovled in the process called endocytosis? Vesicles
A cell moves particles from a region of lesser con. to a region of greater con. by ______ Active Transport
Osmosis water passes through a membrane (passive transport)
Hypertonic (shrink)water leaves
Isotonic same going in and out
Hypotonic (swell) water moves in cell
Facilitated Diffusion carrier proteins and ion channels (passive transport)
Active Transport low con. to high con.; up/against con. gradient; energy needed
Pumps Na+ (sodium,out)/K+ (potassium,in)pump (require vesicles)
Endocytosis, 2 types in; pinocytosis (small) phagocytosis (Large)
Exocytosis exit
Placing a plant in a hypertonic environment will________ cause turgor pressure to decrease
If a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by osmosis
The structure most responsible for maintaining cell homeostasis is the plasma membrane
The diffusion of water into or out of cell is called osmosis
The dispersal of ink in a beaker of water is an ex. of diffusion
The sodium potassium pump usually pupms potassiium ions into the cell
The cell membrane ________ allows things to enter and leave the cell and holds things in the cell
A cell will swell when it is placed in a(n) hypotonic solution
Osmosis is a type of passive transport
Proteins invovled in facilitated diffusion are carrier proteins
Molecules that are too large to be moved through the membrane can be transported into the cell by endocytosis
An example of active transport across a cell membrane sodium/potassium pump
Transport proteins that allow ions to pass through the cell membrane are ion channels
Bc the phospholipid molecules and some proteins are free to move the plasma membrane is said to be a fluid mosaic
Ion channel gates close the pores of some ion channels in response to `change in electrical charge stectching of cell membrane
Sugar molecules like glucose cross the cell membrane by facilitated diffusion
Water moves out of a cell if the cell is placed in a(n) ______ soloution hypertonic
What does not require energy passive transport (difussion,fac. diffusion, osmosis)
what requires the aid of cell membrane pumps active transport
Diffusion moves from higher con. to lower con.

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.
