Cytology Flashcards
study of the cells
cytology
structure that encloses all the parts of the cell
Cytoplasm
responsible from what comes and or passes through a cell
phospholipid bilayer
cell membrane
primary carrier of energy in the cell
ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
Selective Permeability
Cell membrane
pagpasok ng water sa membrane
Osmosis
T or F
High water will move to Higher concentration to lower Concentration
T
can either be ACTIVE or PASSIVE
diffusion
more solvent extracellularly will cause an INWARD direction of water
Hypotonic
ex Saline and Tap Water
more solute extracellularly will cause an OUTWARD direction of water
Hypertonic
ex Corn Syrup
T or F
water travels where there are more SOLUTES and less SOLVENT
T
that’s why in hypertonic (corn syrup) experiment the water shrink/crenation because the water are attracted to solutes
the ability of a solution surrounding a cell to lose or gain water
Tonicity
smallest unit of life
cell
endocrine and exocrine are types of what transport?
Active Transport
osmosis, diffusion, facilitated diffusion
Passive Transport
