Q

passive transport

A

thermodynamically favorable movement of solute across a membrane

18
Q

types of passive transport

A

simple and facilitated diffusion

19
Q

simple diffusion

A

movement without a protein

20
Q

facilitated diffusion

A

movement down a gradient when membrane is impermeable to solute

21
Q

types of proteins that help with facilitated diffusion

A

channel proteins and carrier proteins

22
Q

types of facilitated diffusion channels

A

gated
voltage gate
ligand gate

23
Q

types of facilitated diffusion carriers

A

uniports and sumports

24
Q

active transport

A

movement of molecules through the PM against a gradient

requires energy input and protein

25
primary and secondary active transport
1- coupled with ATP hydrolysis | 2- not directly coupled with ATP
26
Importance of Na/K ATPase
1. maintain osmotic balance btwn cell interior and exterior 2. establish resting membrane potential 3. provide sodium concentration gradient used to drive 2nd active transport
27
types of endocytosis
phagocytosis pinocytosis receptor mediated endocytosis
28
single transduction
when the binding of a liana to a receptor causes triggers a response within the cell
29
types of signal tranducing cell surface receptors
ligand gated ion catalytic g protein linked
30
types of proteins in cytoskeleton
microtubulles intermediate microfilaments
31
microtubules
contain alpha and beta tubulin
32
contractile protein
dynein
33
microfilaments
formed from polymerization of actin
34
intermediate filaments
thick
35
example of desmosomes
epithelial skin cell but dont form a complete seal
36
example of tight junction
forming a tight seal
37
gap junctions
form pore like connections between adjacent cells
38
cell cycle
g1 s g2 m
39
mitosis
pmat
40
responsible for apoptosis
caspases | initiator and effector
41
senescence
process of biological again that occurs at both the cellular and organismal level
