Cell Membrane Flashcards
Integral proteins
Transport ions/ lipids/ molecules/ large substances through membrane
2 types of proteins in plasma membrane?
Integral and peripheral
Peripheral proteins
Interior or exterior of membrane
2 Receptors… Like bone cell and calcium.
1 Cell to cell communication
Fluid mosaic model
Describes arrangement of molecules that make up cell membrane
What is an ligand +example
Signal triggering molecule
Trams,it’s message/ command by going through or to integral protein
Example: _________
What is a phospholipid
Lipid in cell membranes
With polar head (hydrophilic) and no polar tail,(hydrophobic)
What is head of phospholipid made off
1 glycerol
Charged phosphate group
What does it mean to be selectively permeable?
Small no polar substances can pass through
Only select substances can pass through
3 types of passive transport
Osmosis
Diffusion
Facilitated diffusion
Osmosis
WATER diffuses from high to low across membra
Diffusion
Movement of a fluid from high to low concentration
Facilitated diffusion
Diffusion of molecules through transport proteins
What substances enter cell through facilitated diffusion
Ions, larger molecules
Polar
3 osmotic solutions
Hypertonic
Hypotonic
Isotonic
Hypertonic
More,solute than water
Less water
Hypotonic
More water
Less solute
Isotonic
Equal water and solute
Cell is placed in
hypotonic solution
Animal cells burst (cytolysis) plant cells increase turgor pressure and like this condition
Cell in hyper tonic
Animal shrivel up (plasmolysis)
Plants pull away from cell wall (crenation)
Plasmolysis
Plant cell shrivels
Crenation
Animal cell shrivels
Cytolysis
Animal cells burst
Turgor pressure
Plant cells push on cell wall
3 types of active transport
Exocytosis
Endocytosis
Pino and phago
Pumps
Exocytosis
Push things out of body
Endocytosis
Brining things into cell against co cent ration gadient
Pinocytosis
Liquids engulfed
Phagocytosis
Large particles engulfed
Pumps
Substances bind to carrier protein that transports substance across membrane using ATP
Sodium Potassium Pump
Pumps 3 sodium ions out for every 2 potassium ions in opposite directions so sodium on out and potassium inside cell
Equilibrium
All molecules of a substance are equally distributed
Difference btwn active and passive transport
Active tries to not keep equilibrium, and passive keeps equilibrium
