Q

ANIMAL CELL: isotonic

17
Q

ANIMAL CELL: hypertonic

A

shriveled

18
Q

PLANT CELL: hypotonic

A

turgid (thicc)

19
Q

PLANT CELL: isotonic

A

flaccid (normal)

20
Q

PLANT CELL: hypertonic

A

plasmolyzed (weird venom looking one)

21
Q

managing water balance: cell survival depends on

A

balancing water uptake and loss

22
Q

water balance: isotonic

A

e.g. blood cells in blood plasma
- no problem
- no net diffusion of water
- cell volume = stable

23
Q

water balance: hypotonic

A

e.g. paramecium
- problems: gains water, swells, can burst
- solution: contractile vacuole (pumps water out)
- plant cells: stable/turgid

24
Q

water balance: hypertonic

A

e.g. shellfish
- problem: lose water and die
- solution: take up water/pump out salt
- plant cells: plasmolysis = wilt

25
Q

diffuses into cell membrane (food)

A

carbs
sugars, proteins
amino acids
lipids
salts, oxygen, water

26
Q

diffuses out of cell (waste)

A

ammonia
salts
carbon dioxide
water

27
Q

what molecules go thru phosph. bilayer directly

A

fats + lipids
small molecules (water, oxygen, carbon dioxide)

28
Q

what molecules CANT go thru phosph. bilayer directly

A

polar molec.s (amino acids)
ions (salts, ammonia)
large molecules (starches, proteins)

29
Q

membrane becomes semi permeable with

A

protein channels (specific channels let specific substances across membrane)

30
Q

facilitated diffusion:

A

diffusion through protein channels, no energy needed along conc. gradient

31
Q

cystic fibrosis:

A

defective Cl- ion channel proteins

32
Q

FACILITATED DIFFUSION: channel proteins: movement through aquaporins

A

water moves rapidly into and out of cells, follows direction of osmotic pressure across membrane

33
Q

FACILITATED DIFFUSION: carrier proteins:

A

bind to specific molec.s, transport across membrane, release on other side
change shape in transport
can transport larger molec.s, e.g. glucose and amino acids

34
Q

do carrier proteins require any energy?

A

no, moving from high to low conc.

35
Q

carrier proteins: lower diffusion rate compared to

A

channel proteins => can only bind to a few molec.s at a time

36
Q

malfunctions in carrier proteins can cause variety of diseases: e.g.

A

cystinurea
