Question
Answer
what is a mutation?   change in the nucleotide sequence of gene  
🗑
what two things can a mutation cause?   cancer and blood disorders  
🗑
what are the three causes of mutations?   exposure to chemicals and radiation or mistakes during DNA replication  
🗑
what goes into the cell membrane?   nutrients  
🗑
what must go out of the cell membrane?   waste  
🗑
what is permeability?   determines which substances can enter and leave the cytoplasm  
🗑
what does impermeable mean?   NOTHING goes in out  
🗑
what does freely permeable mean?   ANYTHING goes in and out  
🗑
what does selectively permeable mean?   only certain things can move in and out  
🗑
which type of cell membrane do we have?   selectively permeable  
🗑
what are the four things that can be affected by selective permeability?   size; electrical charge; molecular shape; lipid solubility  
🗑
what are the two types of transport?   active and passive  
🗑
what is needed in active transport?   energy and ATP  
🗑
what is the difference with passive transport?   no energy is required  
🗑
what are the tree categories of transport?   diffusion (passive), carrier mediated (can be either), vesicular (active)  
🗑
what is diffusion?   movement of area of high concentration to low concentration  
🗑
what is the goal of diffusion?   balance  
🗑
what is the concentration gradient?   difference between high and low concentration  
🗑
what is concentration?   amount of solute in a solvent  
🗑
what five factors affect diffusion rate?   distance needed to move, molecule size, temperature, gradient size, electrical forces  
🗑
what are the two ways diffusion can be?   simple and channel-mediated  
🗑
what is simple diffusion?   materials which diffuse through cell membrane (ex. lipid soluble compounds like alcohols, fatty acids, steroids, and dissolved gases )  
🗑
what us channel mediated diffusion?   materials that must pass through a transmembrane protein channel  
🗑
what three things affect passage in channel mediated diffusion?   size, charge, and interaction with the channel  
🗑
diffusion of water across a cell membrane   osmosis  
🗑
what occurs across a selectively permeable membrane in osmosis   the membrane must be freely permeable to water, but selectively permeable to solutes.  
🗑
where does water flow during osmosis?   water flows toward the higher concentration of solutes because it has a lower amount of water  
🗑
the force with which pure water moves into that solution as a result of its solute concentration   osmotic pressure  
🗑
what is osmolarity?   total solute concentration in an aqueous solution  
🗑
what is the effect of various osmotic solutions (water) on cells?   tonicity  
🗑
a solution that does NOT cause osmotic flow of water in or out of a cell   isotonic; iso=same tonos(tonic)=tension  
🗑
what does a cell do in a HPYOtonic solution?   cell swells/ruptures (hypo-think HIPPO->get big)  
🗑
what does a cell do in a HYPERtonic solution?   cell shrinks  
🗑
hypotonic has _____ solutes   less  
🗑
hypertonic has ____ solutes   more  
🗑
hypotonic ______ water through osmosis   loses  
🗑
hypertonic _____ water through osmosis   gains  
🗑
what are the two forms of carrier-mediated transport?   facilitated and active  
🗑
what are the three characteristics of channel-mediated transport?   specify, saturation limit, regulation  
🗑
what are the two mechanisms of channel mediated transport?   cotransport and countertransport  
🗑
what are 2 substances moving in the same direction at the same time called?   cotransport  
🗑
what is it called when 1 substance moving in while another moving out?   contertransport  
🗑
what occurs when carrier proteins transport molecules too large to fit through channel proteins?   facilitated diffusion  
🗑
where does a molecule bind to a protein?   the receptor site  
🗑
what are the two types of facilitated diffusion?   passive and carrier mediated  
🗑
what occurs in active transport?   move substances AGAINST THE CONCENTRAION GRADIENT from areas of low to high concentration  
🗑
what is needed for active transport?   energy  
🗑
sodium potassium exchange pump uses which type of transport?   active  
🗑
what does a sodium potassium exchange pump do?   moves 3 Na (sodium) out of cell and 2 K (potassium) into the cell  
🗑
secondary active transport does what?   drives glucose transport; ATP pumps the sodium back out  
🗑
transport vesicles are useful in what two cellular function?   endocytosis and exocytosis  
🗑
what are ligands?   receptors (glycoproteins) that bind target molecules  
🗑
what carries ligands and receptors into the cell?   coated vesicles(endosomes)  
🗑
what does lysosomes do?   break down things  
🗑
what does cell drinking refer to?   pinocytosis  
🗑
what does cell eating refer to?   phagocytosis  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
