membrane lipids
49
New cards
phospholipids
polar philic heads and nonpolar philic tails
50
New cards
glycolipids
lipids with polar sugar groups on outer membrane surface; a carbohydrate attached to lipid on surface used for cell identification
51
New cards
cholesterol
interspersed among phospholipids; amount determines fluid nature; increase membrane stability and function
52
New cards
membrane proteins
allow cell communication with environment
53
New cards
integral
firmly inserted into membrane
most are transmembrane
have phobic and philic regions
transport, enzymes and receptors
54
New cards
peripheral
loosely attached to integral
include filaments on IC surface for plasma membrane support
enzymes, motor, cell to cell, part of glycocalyx
55
New cards
glycocalyx
consists of sugars sticking out of cell surface; a bio marker for cell cell recognition; allows immune system to recognize self v non self
56
New cards
tight
integral protein that forms impermeable junction that encircles the whole cell via interlocking proteins; prevent fluids from moving in between cells in extracellular space
57
New cards
blood brain barrier, digestive tract
tight junctions found
58
New cards
desmosomes
rivet like formed when linker proteins of neighboring cells interlock like a zipper; allow give between cells, reduce tearing under tension
59
New cards
skin, cardiac muscle
desmosomes found
60
New cards
gap
transmembrane proteins form tunnels that allow small molecules to pass from cell to cell; used to spread ions, simple sugars, small molecules, and electrical signals between cells
61
New cards
cardiac and smooth muscle cells
gap junctions found
62
New cards
simple, facilitated, osmosis
types of diffusion
63
New cards
simple
non-polar lipids soluble substance diffuses directly through phospholipid bilayer
O2 CO2 fat-soluble vitamins
64
New cards
carrier
transmembrane integral protein that have SPECIFIC seats and change shape; become saturated when full; POLAR MOLECULES
65
New cards
channel
have aqueous filled cores formed by transmembrane proteins that open all the way through; aquaporins; DEPENDENT ON SIZE AND CHARGE
66
New cards
aquaporins
water channel proteins
67
New cards
osmosis
passive movement of water from high to low concentration
68
New cards
osmolarity
measure of total concentration of solute particles
69
New cards
osmotic pressure
tendency of water to move into the cell by osmosis; sucks water in; more solute means more pressure
70
New cards
hydrostatic
back pressure exerted on a membrane by the water. prevents water from entering; pushes water out
71
New cards
osmotic \= hydrostatic
no net water movement
72
New cards
hypertonic solution
higher osmolarity in solution than cell; water flows out and crenates
73
New cards
hypotonic solution
lower osmolarity in solution than cell; water flows in and hemolysis
74
New cards
primary
active transport using Na K pump
75
New cards
secondary
active transport using charge differences
76
New cards
endocytosis, exocytosis, transcytosis
active vesicular transport
77
New cards
vesicular
transport of large particles, macromolecules, and fluids across membrane in membranous sacs called vesicles
78
New cards
phago, pino, receptor mediated
endo
79
New cards
endocytosis
formation of protein coated vesicles; usually involves receptors and can be very selective; into cell
80
New cards
phago
cell eating via pseudopods; macrophages and other wbc
81
New cards
pino
cell drinking via plasma membrane folds
82
New cards
receptor mediated
picky eater
83
New cards
exocytosis
