Exam 2 Flashcards
Proteins that carry substances from one umembrane to another…
carrier protein
Helps the cell maintain its shape and internal organization
cytoskeleton
outside of the nucleus has organelles and cytosol, fluid inside of cell
cytoplasm
constant random motion, molecules evenly distributed, spread out higher to lower concentration (w/ gradient), passive, O2 CO2 lipids, don’t need a carrier
diffusion
similar to diffusion, movement of molecule depends on concentration, passive, moves w/gradient (high to low concentration), no carrier needed, (glucose moving into muscle cells)
facilitated
needs carrier (protein), against gradient low to high concentration, ions like NA+, K+, Ca2+
Active transport
like diffusion but w/water, passive, no carrier needed, moves w/gradient (High to low conentration), water
Osmosis
Passive, no carrier, (high to low) w/gradient, inorganic ions thro kidneys,
filtration
Vescular, movement caused by gradient, carrier (liposomes), moves out of cell, digestive enzymes, hormones, neurotransmitters
exocytosis
(endocytosis), vescular, movement caused by gradient, carrier (liposomes), moves into cell, microvoli, dissolved solutes, absorbs foreign nutrients
Phagocytosis
(endocytosis), Vescular, movement caused by gradient, carrier (liposomes), into cell, microvoli, absorbs all nutrients
pinocytosis
1.2% saline, water leaves cell, shrinks
hypertonic
0.9% saline, equal water in and out of cell
isotonic
0.7%, salt water goes into cell, swells
hypotonic
colder temp, small particle, highly permeable membrane, higher solute concentration
rapid diffusion
fluid outside of the cell
extracellular fluid
increases surface area of plasma membrane for absorption and secretion, modified to form sensory receptors
microvilli
basic cell movements, cellular contraction, provides support to cytoplasm of cell, component of certain organelles (centrioles, spindle fibers, cilia, flagella) apart of cytoskeleton
microfilament
provides mechanical strength to cells, apart of cytoskeleton
intermediate filament
essential components of organelles, provides structure/support of cytoplasm of cell, cellular division/transport intercellular, apart of cytoskeleton
microtubule
Moves materials over the surface of cells
cilla
propels spermatoza
flagella
serves as a site of protein synthesis
ribosomes
contains digestive enzymes
peroxisomes
major sites of ATP synthesis when O2 is available
Mitochondria
Synthesizes proteins, usually transported to Golgi appartatus
rough endoplasmic reticulum
Manufactures lipids/carbohydrates, detoxifies harmful chemicals, stores calcium
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
glycoproteins, function allows for cellular identification
marker proteins
attaches one cell to another, cells to extracellular material
attachment proteins
increase rate of chemical reactions towards the surface, breaks thro polypeptide bonds to release A.A.
enzymes
potassium ion changes shape of channel to original shape (starts outside, 3/2 Na to potassium
sodium potassium
ATP powered-pumps, atp used energy to move molecules
transport protein
