Chapter 4 Flashcards
PISO (primary CATION)
Potassium in, Sodium out
MICO (secondary CATION)
Magnessium in, Calcium out
PhiClo (primary ANION)
phosphate in, Chloride out
SULIBIO (SECONDARY ANION)
Sulfate in, Bicarbonate out
molecules move
spontaneously from an area of high concentration
to one of low concentration
diffusion
Kinetic movement of molecules or ions occurs
through a membrane opening or through
intermolecular spaces without any interaction
with carrier proteins in the membrane
simple or passive diffusion?
simple diffusion (downhill)
Rate of diffusion approaches a maximum as the concentration of the
diffusing substance increases.
simple or facilitated diffusion
facilitated (downhill)
-REQUIRES CARRIER and CHANNEL
Glucose transporter that is activated by
insulin, which can increase the rate of diffusion of
glucose
GLUT 3 or GLUT 4
Glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4)
proportional to the
concentration on the outside minus
on the inside
net diffusion rate or precentage ?
net diffusion rate
Effect of membrane ELECTRICAL POTENTIAL on
diffusion of ions
Nernst Potential or power
Nernst Potential
the SUM OF ALL THE FORCES of the different
molecules striking a unit surface area at
a given instant
PRESSURE
-is about 20 mmHg greater inside the
capillary than outside
factor that determines how rapidly a substance diffuses
through the lipid bilayer
LIPID SOLUBILITY or water
LIPID SOLUBILITY
the RATE OF DIFFUSION of each of the substances through
the membrane is DIRECTLY proportional to its LIPID SOLUBILITY
substances that have high lipid solubility: CANO
hydrophobic solutes: − oxygen − nitrogen − carbon dioxide − alcohols
Permits only certain molecules to pass through
SELECTIVE PERMEABILITY
Determined by diameter of a pore and its electric
charge
selective or non-selective ?
SELECTIVE PERMEABILITY
form open tubes
through the membrane
pores or acne
PORES
Protein channel regulated by electric signals
voltage or ligand gated ?
voltage-gated channel
ANTIPORT
Protein channel regulated by chemicals that bind to
the channel proteins
voltage or ligand gated ?
ligand-gated
have inner channels that are lined
with amino acids that are strongly negatively charged
potassium or sodium channel
sodium channel
They were found to have
tetrameric structure consisting of four identical protein
subunits surrounding a central pole
potassium or sodium channel
potassium channel
from a solution with low solute to high solute concentration
osmosis or osmolality
osmosis
occurs from the pure water into the sodium chloride
solution
-determined by the number of particles
per unit volume of fluid
osmolality or osmotic pressure
osmotic pressure
unit used (in place of grams) to express the
concentration of a solution in terms of numbers of
particles
mole or osmole
osmole
normal osmolality of ECF and ICF
300 milliosmoles per
kilogram of water
