28
Q

Plasmodesmata

A

Allows for the exchange of solutes and cell communication

29
Q

Diffusion

A

molecules go from high concentration to low concentration

30
Q

Osmosis

A

Water moving through a semipermeable membrane.
Low solute to high solute concentration

31
Q

What are the six membrane proteins?

A

Transport
Enzyme
Attachment
Receptor
Junction
Glycoproteins

32
Q

Adhesion

A

Water molecules stick to polar surfaces

33
Q

Cohesion

A

Water molecules attracted to other water molecules
Creates surface tension

34
Q

Tonicity

A

ability of a solution to cause a cell to gain or lose water.

35
Q

Isotonic

A

solute concentration is the same as that inside the cell; no net water movement across the plasma membrane

36
Q

Hypertonic

A

Solute concentration is greater than that inside the cell. Cell loses water.

37
Q

Hypotonic

A

solute concentration is less than that inside the cell. Cell will gain water.

38
Q

Transport Protein

A

allows specific ions or molecules do enter or exit the cell.

39
Q

Channel protein (transport)

A

Allows everything to go in and out

40
Q

Carrier Protein (transport)

A

active transport, ATP is used, changes the shape of the protein.

41
Q

Enzyme

A

May be grouped (work together or alone)
Starts, stops, slows or speeds up reactions.

42
Q

Attachement

A

Coordinates internal and external changes

43
Q

Receptor Protein

A

Signaling molecules will bind to proteins and relay a message by activating the other molecules inside the cell.
COMMUNICATION

44
Q

Junction Protein

A

Form intercellular junction attach adjacent cells.

45
Q

Glycoproteins

A

Serve as ID tags

46
Q

what affects the rate of diffusion?

A

temperature
molecular size
concentration
pressure

47
Q

Selective permeable

A

water can move freely through membrane, but membrane will regulate the passage of solutes.

48
Q

Facilitated Diffusion

A

does NOT require transport proteins.
No energy, relies on concentration gradient

49
Q

Passive Transport

A

A solute moves freely through a membrane transport protein.

50
Q

Endocytosis

A

used to import substances useful to the livelihood of the cell

51
Q

Exocytosis

A

used to export bulky molecules.

52
Q

Phagocytosis

A

“cell eating” large items are brought into cells in a vacuole

53
Q

Pinocytosis

A

“cell drinking” fluid is brought into the cell vesicles.

54
Q

Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis

A

Specific molecules bind to receptors and then enter the cell in vesicles.

55
Q

Fluid Mosaic Model

A

Phospholipids in the plasma membrane can move within the bilayer.
Cholesterol helps stiffen the plasma membrane at high temps. Helps to maintain fluidity at low temps.
