ATP and cell transport Flashcards
what does ATP stand for
adenosine triphosphate
how many building blocks of ATP are there
5
what are the building blocks of ATP and how many of them are there
1 ribose, 1 adenine, 3 phosphates
what is the function of atp
to provide cell energy
what is the bond called between the second and third phosphate on atp
high energy bond
what is an anabolic reaction
using energy to build up substances
what does the cell use anabolic reactions for
cell activities, growth maintenance, and repair
what is a catabolic reaction
the breakdown of substances to release energy
what is an example of a catabolic reaction
cellular respiration and digestion
is energy released or stored when ATP is converted to ADP
released
is energy released or stored when ADP is converted to ATP
stored
what is the fluid in the fluid mosaic model
the phospholipids that move
what is the mosaic in the fluid mosaic model
the combo of protiens, lipids, and carbs
what does hydrophilic mean
water loving
what does hydrophobic mean
fear of water
which part of the phospholipid is hydrophilic
phosphate head
which part of the phospholipid is hydrophobic
fatty acid tail
do heads of the bilayer face inside or outside of the cell
outside
do the tails of the bilayer face inside or outside of the cell
inside
why is it important for the cell membrane to be semipermeable
to keep the good things in and the bad things out
which way do particles move during passive transport
high to low concentration
does passive transport require the use of atp
no
what is the concentration gradient
the temporary difference in the amount of particles in a substance
what is the temporary difference in the amount of particles in a substance
concentration gradient
what does it mean when particles have reached the equilibrium
equal amounts of particles are on both sides of the cell membrane
what are the two main types of passive transport
osmosis and diffusion
what is simple diffusion
movement of particles from high to low concentration
