BIO Exam #2 Flashcards
2 layers of phospholipids (main) and various proteins
Membranes
Selectively permeable
In and out
Surround all living cells and organize cell functions inside Eukaryotic cells
Membranes
Catalyze reactions inside or outside the cell at the membrane surface
Enzyme
AC; connects the inside of the cell to the outside by attaching ECM to the cytoskeleton, responds to changes inside/outside the cell, and supports the cell
Attachment Proteins
bind to signal molecules from other cells and relay message to inside of cell
Receptor Proteins
A) Channel protein-always open and allow small molecules to move in and out of the cell
B) Active transport proteins involved in active transport of specific molecules in and out of the cell
Transport Protein
AC only; gap junctions, anchoring junctions, and tight junctions
Junction Proteins
Cell ID
Glycoproteins
Movement of molecules across a membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration (concentration gradient)
Passive Transport
No Energy Required
Passive Transport
2 Kinds
Diffusion=O2/C)2 out
Facilitated Diffusion=uses a channel protein, Aquaporins
Passive Transport
Diffusion of water across a membrane
Osmosis
Hypertonic Solutions
More solute/less water
Hypotonic Solutions
Less solute/more water
Isotonic Solutions
Equal amount of solute and water
All cells have…
Cytoplasm
Animal cells do best in a…
Isotonic Solution
Plant cells do best in a…
Hypotonic Solution
Water always goes from a…
Hypotonic to a Hypertonic solution
Burst=
Lysis
Shrink=
Plasmolysis
- Requires energy (ATP)
- Requires an active transport protein
- Moves molecules against the concentration gradient for LOW to HIGH
Active Transport
Moving large molecules…
Eukaryotic; polymers like proteins/polysaccharides across a membrane
Endocytosis
IN
Phagocytosis
Amoeba/WBC
Receptor
Mediated endocytosis; cholesterol LDL in blood
Exocytosis
OUT
Living organisms need … to function and get energy by doing …
Energy; energy transformations
Energy of motion; light, heat
Kinetic
Stored energy; chemicals
-contained in matter due to structure/location
Potential
Chemical reactions can either … or …
Release energy (exergonic); store energy (endergonic)
Cellular Respiration
Exergonic
Photosynthesis
Endergonic
Phosphorylation
Adding a phosphate group to a molecule
ATP-nucleotide
Law of Thermodynamics 1st Law
Energy is never created or destroyed only transformed
Law of Thermodynamics 2nd Law
Everytime energy is transformed some is converted into heat and released (generated entropy or disorder)
All the chemical reactions inside a cell
Metabolism
