1
New cards

diffusion

substance in greater concentration on one side of a semipermeable membrane will move down concentration if it can

2
New cards

diffusion

O2 diffuses into cell because generally higher concentration is outside cell

3
New cards

diffusion

CO2 diffuses out of cell because generally more concentration is inside cell

4
New cards

crossing lipid bilayer

large polar or ionic molecules cannot easily cross bilayer

5
New cards

large polar or ionic molecules cannot easily cross bilayer

very small polar molecule (H2O) can diffuse due to size

6
New cards

crossing lipid bilayer

charge atoms or molecules of any cannot cross bilayer

7
New cards

charge atoms or molecules of any cannot cross bilayer

repelled by hydrophobic tails

8
New cards

crossing lipid bilayer

most solutes dissolved in H2O cannot pass freely through lipid bilayer

9
New cards

most solutes dissolved in H2O cannot pass freely through lipid bilayer

movement restricted to protein channels + specialized transport mechanisms

10
New cards

facilitated diffusion

process used for those substances that cannot cross due to size, charge, +/or polarity

11
New cards

facilitated diffusion

two “type”

12
New cards

1 type of facilitated diffusion

specialized carrier proteins transfer molecules into cell to facility its inward diffusion

13
New cards

2 type of facilitated diffusion

membrane proteins form channels or gateways so substances can move down their concentration gradient

14
New cards

osmosis

diffusion of H2O through a semipermeable membrane

15
New cards

isotonic

2 solutions have same concentration of solutes

16
New cards

isotonic

cells must maintain equal concentration of H2O inside + outside to function

17
New cards

hypertonic

solution with higher concentration of solutes

18
New cards

hypertonic

H2O tends to diffuse into

19
New cards

hypertonic

cells will shrivel as H2O leaves cell

20
New cards

hypotonic

solution with lower concentration of solutes

21
New cards

hypotonic

H2O tends to diffuse out

22
New cards

hypotonic

cells will swell + risk bursting

23
New cards

filtration

uses a hydrostatic pressure gradient to push fluid + solutes in from area of higher pressure to area of lower pressure

24
New cards

filtration

movement of plasma + substances out of capillaries + into surrounding tissue

25
New cards

filtration

mechanism that kidneys use to remove water from bloodstream

26
New cards

active transport

ATP needed to move substance across a membrane

27
New cards

active transport

often against its concentration gradient

28
New cards

active transport

often with help of protein “pumps”

29
New cards

active transport

through endocytosis (process of cell ingesting material)

30
New cards

sodium-potassium pump

maintains high concentration of sodium ion outside of cell

31
New cards

sodium-potassium pump

maintains electrical gradient

32
New cards

sodium-potassium pump

concentration of NA+ outside and K+ inside cell

33
New cards

sodium-potassium pump

difference in electrical charge across a space

34
New cards

cells need sodium ion

opens passive sodium channel

35
New cards

passive sodium channel

concentration gradient of sodium drives sodium into cell

36
New cards

endocytosis

process of cell ingesting material

37
New cards

endocytosis

material ingested is enveloped in a portion of cell membrane

38
New cards

endocytosis

material ingested becomes independent intracellular vesicle

39
New cards

phagocytes

large particles

40
New cards

pinocytes

fluid with dissolved substances

41
New cards

receptor-mediated endocytosis

portion of cell membrane with receptors for specific substance (ligand)

42
New cards

receptor-mediated endocytosis

cell membrane envelopes receptor-ligand complex

43
New cards

exocytosis

exporting material using vesicular transport

44
New cards

exocytosis

substances produce in cell package for transport

45
New cards

exocytosis

membrane-bound vesicles fuse with cell membrane

46
New cards

exocytosis

vesicle releases it contention into interstitial fluid

47
New cards

example of exocytosis

secretion of digestive enzymes

48
New cards

example of exocytosis

release of hormones

49
New cards

example of exocytosis

immune cells produce histamine
