chapterw 4,5,6 Flashcards
what is diffusion?
- movement of solutes
- with concentration gradient
- passive
- O2 or CO2
what is osmosis?
- movement of solvent
- with concentration gradient
- passive
- water
explain the 2 types of carrier mediated transport
1. facilitated diffusion= \+movement of large solutes \+passive \+glucose 2. active transport= \+movement of large solutes \+active \+glucose
explain the 2 types of vesicular transport
endocytosis (in)
exocytosis (out)
-pinocytosis(liquid)
-phagocytosis(solid)
what does the receptor protein do?
+groups of large molecules in and out of cell
what does the channel protein do?
+allows small molecules in and out of cell e.g. water
what does the carrier proteins do?
+allows large molecules like glucose in/out of cell, only one type of molecule

fluid mosaic model
describe tails and heads in phospholipid bilayer?
hydrophobic tails
hydrophilic heads
whats the hierarchy of structural organisation in the human body?
cells>tissues>organs>systems>organism

what is epithelial tissue?
+covers and lines organs to protect them

+skin
whats connective tissue
+provides support for body & holds parts together
+cells are seperated by matrix
+bone
whats nervous tissue?
+made up of neurons
