Q

Happens naturally, no energy is required

A

Passive Transport

17
Q

Function of Cell Membrane. Movement of particles from high to low concentration. Passive, requires no energy

A

Passive Transport

18
Q

Diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane. Water diffuses across a membrane from region of lower solute concentration to region of higher solute concentration until solute concentration is equal.

A

Osmosis

19
Q

No energy (ATP) required

A

Passive Transport

20
Q

Move molecules of solute high to low concentration

A

Diffusion

21
Q

Movement of water (H2O). Way to balance solute concentration

A

Osmosis

22
Q

Solute concentration is the same inside and outside of cell

A

Isotonic

23
Q

Solute concentration is greater

A

Hypertonic

24
Q

Solute concentration is less.

A

Hypotonic

25
Q

Molecules in and Out of Cell:

A

1.) Passive Transport
A.) Diffusion
B.) Osmosis

26
Q

Diffusion:

A

a.) simple diffusion
b.) facilitated diffusion
i.) channel proteins
ii.) carrier proteins

27
Q

molecules pass through membrane

A

simple diffusion

28
Q

Transport proteins use to passively move molecules across the plasma membrane.

A

Facilitated diffusion

29
Q

Open passageway for molecule to get through. Provide corridors that allow a specific molecule or ion to cross the membrane.

A

channel proteins

30
Q

carry molecules across membrane and he protein has to have a shape or confirmation change. Undergo a certain change in shape that translocates the solute-binding site across the membrane.

A

Carrier proteins

31
Q

Move substances against their concentration gradients, requires energy (ATP). Low to high, against the concentration gradient.

A

Active Transport

32
Q

Occurs when active transport of a solute indirectly drives transport of other solutes

A

Cotransport

33
Q

Help get big things in and out of cell.

A

Bulk Transport

34
Q

What 2 things are apart of Bulk Transport?

A

Exocytosis and Endocytosis

35
Q

Vesicles move to membrane, fuse with it, and release their contents outside of cell

A

Exocytosis
Exo=out
cyto=cell

36
Q

Cell takes in molecules by forming new vesicles from the plasma membrane.

A

Endocytosis
Endo=inside
cyto=cell
