Electrical signal used to open or close gated ion channel:

A

Ligand
•small proteins that bind to then protons or glycoproteins
•called ligand gated ion channels

130
Q

Passive transport

A
  • no energy necessary

* inc: uniport, symport, antiport

131

133
Q

Symporter

A

•two ions on same direction

134
Q

Antiporter

A

•two different ions two directions

135
Q

Enzymes

A

•catalyze chemical reactions either inside or outside of the cell

136
Q

Active transport

A
  • need ATP

* ion pumps

137
Q

3 membrane rules

A
  • H20 gets across slowly
  • ions never cross
  • large molecules don’t stress
138
Q

Glycocalyx

A
  • identify function

* adhesion function

139
Q

Osmosis

A
  • diffusion of water over a selectively permeable membrane

* aquaporins (water channel proteins) increase membrane permeability

140
Q

Isotonic

A

•solute is equal In and outside of cell

141
Q

Hypertonic solution

A

Placed in solution and water flows out of cell

•cell shrinks

142
Q

Hypotonic solution

A
  • placed into solution and water moves into cell
  • more solute in cell
  • cell expands
143
Q

Lysis

A

Ruptured cell, due to excess water

144
Q

Secondary active transport

A
  • active transport of ion out if cell
  • establishing a concentration gradient
  • the tendency for ions to move back in is greater
  • other ion uses that energy to re enter cell with ion
145
Q

Cytoskeleton

146
Q

Microtubules

A 
•cell support and structure to cytoplasm
"Internal scaffolding"
•involved in cell division
