Q

active transport: cells may need to move molecules

A

AGAINST conc gradient
- shape change in carrier protein transports solute from one side of membrane to another
- protein pump
- costs energy = ATP

Q

passive transport summary:

A

simple diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion

17
Q

passive transport summary: SIMPLE DIFFUSION

A

diffusion of nonpolar, Hphobic molecs/small molecs
- lipids, O2, CO2
- high to low conc

18
Q

passive transport summary: OSMOSIS

A

diffusion of water molecs
- high to low conc gradient

19
Q

passive transport summary: FACILITATED DIFFUSION

A

diffusion of polar, Hphilic molecs
- thru channel/carrier proteins
- high to low concentration gradient

20
Q

active transport summary:

A

movement AGAINST conc gradient
- low to high conc. gradient
- protein pump/carrier protein
- requries ATP

21
Q

membrane assisted transport:

A

method for macromolecules that are TOO BIG to cross membrane thru channel/carrier protein

22
Q

membrane assisted transport: cell forms

A

vesicles to surround incoming material
- requires energy from cell
- two types: ENDOcytosis and EXOcytosis

23
Q

membrane assisted transport: ENDOcytosis

A

cell membrane engulfs extracellular material to bring inside cell, pinches off to form vesicle inside cell
- phagocytosis
- pinocytosis
- receptor-mediated

24
Q

membrane assisted transport: endocytosis: PHAGOCYTOSIS

A

endocytosis involving SOLID particles: cell-eating

25
Q

membrane assisted transport: endocytosis: PINOCYTOSIS

A

endocytosis involving LIQUID particles: cell-drinking

26
Q

membrane assisted transport: endocytosis: RECEPTOR-MEDIATED

A

receptor proteins in cell membrane bind to specific molecs outside cell
- membrane folds inward to create vesicle containing bound particles
- vesicles coated with a protein that forms a cage around the vesicle

27
Q

membrane assisted transport: EXOCYTOSIS

A
  • opposite of endocytosis
  • vesicles fuse w membrane and empty contents into extracellular environment
  • vesicle becomes part of membrane
28
Q

in animal cells, exocytosis is used to release

A

substances such as hormones, neurotransmitters, digestive enzymes

29
Q

secondary active transport: synporter:

A

transfer two different molecules in the same direction (in or out)

30
Q

secondary active transport: antiporter:

A

one type of molec in, one type of molec out

31
Q

examples of antiporter:

A

sodium-potassium pump

32
Q

examples of synporter:

A

sodium-glucose pump

33
Q

secondary active transport can’t work unless

A

primary active transport has already worked

34
Q

cotransport:

A

symport and antiport

35
Q

synport, antiport, and uniport can all act as channels for

A

active transport

36
Q

uniport can dually function as a channel for

A

passive transport

37
Q

how can you tell from a channel if its active or passive transport

A

if it’s moving from high to low or low to high
