Chapter 3 Module 4 Flashcards
Plasma membrane
Selectively permeable barrier and gateway between cistoplasm and ECF
Membrane transport types
Passive: no ATP
Active: requires ATP
Not carrier mediated: no membrane protein
Carrier mediated: requires membrane protein
Passive transport
- no ATP
- Relies on random molecular motion of particles provides energy
- filtration, diffusion, osmosis
Filtration
Membrane substances can move through and as they move pressure forces water and small substances to pass through, but large ones cannot
Diffusion
Moves down gradient from high concentration to low concentration
- facilitated requires carrier protein, simple does not
Osmosis
Diffusion of water across a membrane from high concentration to low concentration to equalize the concentrations
Carrier mediated transport
Requires transport protein: specific protein in plasma membrane that carries solute from one side of membrane to other
- specific and bind with only certain ligand. saturate: have a transport maximum
Uniport protein: One solute at a time
Symport: 2 or more solute at a time
Antiport! 2 or more solute in different directions
Sodium potassium pump
Brings potassium in and pumps sodium out from cell and requires ATP
- maintains membrane potential in all cells s keeps inside more negative
- hear production as a byproduct of and consumption
2 types of carrier mediated transport
Facilitated diffusion: moves south down concentration w out ATP.
Active transport: mores solute up concentrate requires ATP
-Primary: sodium potassium pump, pumps 3 Na out and 2 K in
-Secondary: brings in glucose w a sodium molecule
Vesicular transport
Processes that more large particles or multiple particles in vesicles
- Endocystosis: Moves material into all
1. Phagocytosis: cell eating
2. pinocytosis: cell drinking - exocytosis: discharging material from cell.
-Recepter mediated endocytosis: enables cells to take in specific molecules that bind to extrasellular receptors
