Q

cholesterol function

A

adds strength and rigidity to the membrane

22
Q

intrinsic protein function

A

span the whole membrane allows facillitated diffusion

23
Q

extrinsic proteins function

A

only on surface of membrane anchor cells to other structures

24
Q

glycoproteins function

A

cell receptor sites
hormone / drugs bind to them

25
phospholipids function
hydrophilic head + hydrophobic tail form the fluid moasaic model
26
cholesterol function
provides stability by reducing the fluidity
27
what affects cell transport
surface area concentration gradient temperature size of molecule lipid solubility thickness of the membrane.
28
2 types of transport
passive active
29
conc gradient with passive transport
with
30
conc gradient with active transport
against needs energy
31
3 types of passive transport
Diffusion Facilitated diffusion Osmosis
32
diffusion
down a concentration gradient passive process
33
why is diffusion essential in the body
exhcnage of gases in alevolus iin the cell
34
effect of conc gradient on diffusion
greater concentration difference, faster substance will diffuse
35
effect of distance of travel on diffusion
further a particle mst diffuse, longer it will take and slow rate of diffusion
36
effect of surface area of membrane on diffusion
greater surface area, greater probibility that a particle will pass through
37
effect of thickness of membrane on diffusion
thicker the longer it takes for particles to pass through
38
effect of increase in temp on diffusion
rate of diffusion will be faster as temp increases de to greater kinetic energy
39
effect of particle size on diffusion
at given temp, small particles moves faster than a large one
40
carrier proteins
will bind to the substance and then change their shape so that the substance is transported to the other side of the membrane
41
channel proteins
contain hydrophilic tunnels which water soluble particles such as ions can travel through
42
what affects the rate of facillitated diffusion
number of channel or carrier proteins
43
osmosis
movement of water from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration across a partially-permeable membrane
44
active transport
process cell takes up a substance against a concentration gradient from a low concentration to a high concentration
45
endoctosis
Transports large molecules into a cell. Molecules enclosed in fold in membrane that pinches shut to form a vesicle. Energy is needed in the form of ATP
46
exocytosis
Transports large molecules out of a cell. Molecules are enclosed by a vesicle (from endoplasmic reticulum or golgi body) and fuses with the membrane. Energy is needed in the form of ATP
47
what is pinocytosis
uptake of large molecule form solution
48
what is phagocytosis
up take of solid particles
49
baisic explination of endocytosis
bulk transport into the cell
50
baisic explination of exocytosis
bulk transport out of cell
51
how to leave the cell
exocytosis material package in vesicles vesicles fuse with plasma membrane
