A

diffuse solutes down con. gradient
forms free energy
rate can be affected

27

osmosis

A

net flow of h20 one side of SPM to the o/
maintains body’s water distribution
flows from less solute con. to higher solute con.

28

osmotic pressure

A

need for h20

more non-perm. solute inc pressure

osmolarity

A

osmotic concentration of body fluids

32
Q

tonicity

A

solute can affect vol. and pressure inside of cell

if sol. unevenly distributed

33

need mem! + ATP
protein changes shape to carry mol. across mem.
have specificity
contain saturation to a point

34
Q

saturation point for carrier-mediated transport

A

transport maximum

35

symport

40
Q

moves 2+ solute in opposite direction

A

antiport

41
Q

CMT- Facilitated diffusion

A

solute through mem. down con. gradient

no ATP

42
Q

A

Need ATP

substance through mem. up con. gradient

43
Q

Na-K Pump

A

3 Na out of cell

2 K in cell

44
Q

secondary active transport

A

mvmnt of ions up and down con. grad.
one structure powers another
