New cards
Transport proteins
________ on cell membranes help molecules cross because they cant cross on their own due to polar /non- polar areas of the membrane.
2
New cards
Cytolysis
________: occurs with the bursting of a cell due to the development of a condition of osmotic imbalance.
3
New cards
Concentration gradient
________: measures the difference in concentrations of a substance between areas.
4
New cards
Plasmolysis
________: shrinking of (the cell membrane) cytoplasm away from the wall of a living cell due to the outward osmotic flow of water.
5
New cards
Concentration gradient
measures the difference in concentrations of a substance between areas
6
New cards
Since the cell membrane is selectively preamble, only some molecules are able to diffuse through it
water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and some small lipids
7
New cards
Cytolysis
occurs with the bursting of a cell due to the development of a condition of osmotic imbalance
8
New cards
Turgor Pressure
Pressure exerted by fluid in a cell that presses the cell membrane against the cell wall
9
New cards
Plasmolysis
shrinking of (the cell membrane) cytoplasm away from the wall of a living cell due to the outward osmotic flow of water
