cell membrane test 4 Flashcards
phospholipid function
maintain barrier between the cell and its external enviroment
parts of phospholipid
a polar hydrophillic head and non polar hydro phobic tails
what is a peripheral protein
attaches to integral protein or lipids bilayer and is not embedded
what s the function of a peripheral protein
cell to cell communication
what are intergral proteins
proteins that are emmbedded into the cell membrane
what are examples of integral proteins
any transport proteins
what are channel proteins
a protein that helps molecules pass through
what type of transport is channel protein
facilitated diffusion
does the use of channel proteins require energy
no
what are carrier proteins
a protein that helps move thing in and out of the cell with energy
what is needed for a carrier protein
atp
what is a glycoprotein
protein with a carb attached
what are the functions of glycoprotein
transport, cell attechement, regognition , lubricant and protective agent
where does the carb of the glycoprotein go
on the outside
what is an isotonic solution
a solution with the same concentration inside and outside the cell
how does water flow with a cell in a isotonic solution
it flows evenly in and out
what is a plant cell inside an isotonic solution
flacid
what is a hypertonic solution
a solution with a higheer concentration outside than inside the cell
how does water flow insdie the cell with an hypertonic solution
it flows out of the cell
