Cell Membrane And Transport Flashcards
The _ _ model is used to describe the structure of the cell membrane
Fluid mosaic
A form of endocytosis where smaller substances are brought into the cell by forming vesicles at the cell membrane
Pinocytosis
_ transport via proteins requires no energy input
Facilitated
The _ gland requires the active transport of iodine out of the blood and into its cells
Thyroid
A membrane is said to be _ permeable if it lets some things pass through it, but does not allow other things to pass
Selectively
The movement of a vacuole our of the cell
Exocytosis
A homogenous mixture where one substance is dissolved into another
Solution
A type of endocytosis where larger substances are brought into the cell by forming vacuoles at the cell membrane
Phagocytosis
Receptor — endocytosis occurs when a substance bunds to a receptor protein and cause another substance to be taken into the cell via vessel s formation
Mediated
If a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution
Plasmolysis
If an animal cell is placed in a hypertonic solution ___ occurs
Crenation
The sodium/ potassium pump is found in large numbers in these kind of cells
Nerve
Carrier proteins are ___ meaning they only carry one type of particle
Specific
Refers to a solution that is less concentrated when compared to another solution
Hypotonic
The substance that does the dissolving in a solution
Solvent
__ sized molecules tend to produce higher rates of diffusion
Smaller
_ proteins catalyze chemical reactions on the cell membrane
Enzymatic
__ proteins cause a change up the cell membrane when a specifically shaped molecule bonds in its binding site
Receptor
The diffusion rate can be increased by raising the __ which in turn increases the speed at which particles are moving
Temperature
Active transport is able to move molecules _ the concentration gradient
Against
When solution on either side of a membrane are the same concentration there is _ net movement of water or solute across the membrane
No
Turgor pressure is important to plant cells because as their cells start to lose turf or pressure the plant will start to__
Wilt
The substance that is being dissolved in a solution
Solute
A _ protein uses tap to change shape to move molecules across the cell membrane
Carried
