29
Q

explain the importance of the smooth endo. ret.

A

specialised functions in different cells (ie detox in kidney cells, makes steroid based hormones in testes)

30
Q

explain the importance of a rough endo ret.

A

makes proteins- packs and sends to golgi apparatus in transport vesicles

31
Q

what is the golgi apparatus

A

takes protein vesicles and sorts them then redistributes to their final destination (outside cell, other organelles etc)

32
Q

what are lysosomes and peroxisomes

A

membrane-bound vesicles with enzymes

33
Q

what are enzymes

A

catalysts for a specific biochemical reactions

34
Q

what does the mitochondria do

A

completes aerobic respiration for the cell (converts nutrients C02 to H2O, released energy stored as atp)

35
Q

what is atp

A

when the chemical bond between 2 phospates break - energy is released after this occurs

36
Q

how do we use ATP?

A

mechanical work, synthesis of new compounds, transport molecules across membrane

37
Q

Describe protein synthesis from start

A

Vesicles with proteins come off the rough endo, golgi modifies protein, proteins packed then taken elsewhere

38
Q

qualities of membrane and functions

A

Forms a mechanical barrier, selective permeability, communication and cell signaling, an electrochemical gradient

39
Q

describe a mechanical barrier

A

separates ICF from ECF

40
Q

what is ECF and ICF

A

extra-cellular fluid and intercelular fluid

41
Q

what is selective permeability

A

determines what molecules move through the ICF &ECF

42
Q

what is an electrochemical gradient

A

Important for neural and muscle function

43
Q

communication and cell signaling

A

receiving and interpreting messages from other cells

44
Q

are the polar heads on the outside or the inside on the biphospholipid cell membrane

A

outside

45
Q

Are the non-polar tails hydrophobic or hydrophilic

A

hydrophobic (dont like water)

46
Q

Describe phospholipids

A

Have a hydrophobic head and a hydrophilic tail and are sandwiched together

47
Q

what molecules can pass through the membrane

A

water , ethanol and gases (02, C02)

48
Q

what are non-penetrating molecules

A

Ions & (glucose and protein)

49
Q

what are Ions

A

an atom or molecule with an electrilcal charge

50
Q

what are the two types of transport across the membrane

A

active and passive

51
Q

what is active transport

A

needs energy(atp), molecules from low conc. to high conc. (concentration gradient), vesicular transport (exocytosis/endocytosis), secondary and primary transport

52
Q

what is passive transport

A

doesnt need atp, from high to low conc, simple division, osmosis

53
Q

does active or passive transport have facilitated difusion(carriers/channels)

A

passive

54
Q

what is difussion

A

movement of molecules from high conc. to low conc.

55
Q

what is difussion

A

movement of molecules from high conc. to low conc.

56
Q

what is a conc. gradient

A

difference of molecules across 2 areas (the more different the greater the conc. gradient)

57
Q

describe the difference between simple and facilitated difussion

A

solutes move through the membrane without help/facilitated is non-penetrating solutes moving through the membrane through carriers or through channels (draw a channel and a carrier)

58
Q

explain osmosis

A

movement of water from low osmolarity to high osmo.

59
Q

Fluid in the body

A

can be found intracellularly or in plasma (interstitial fluid) (extracellularly)

60
Q

what is tonacity

A

3 types of solution and is the effect a solution has on a cells shape and size due to osmosis

61
Q

what is an isotonic solution

A

cell doesnt change, same osmolarity, no movement of water

62
Q

what is a hypotonic solution

A

cell swells, low osmolarity of solute in the solution, water moves into the cell

63
Q

what is a hypertonic solution

A

cells shrink, water moves out of the cell, high osmolarity of solute in the solution

64
Q

describe primary active transport

A

3 NA+ bind to pump, releases reaction and spits out NA+ to the opposite side, K+ then goes into the pump and goes where the NA+ came from to balcnce out the molecules

65
Q

describe secondary transport

A

1 molecule will move down the conc. gradient as sacrifice for the energy source then other molecules hitch a free ride to the other side of the membrane

66
Q

?? transport is for when molecules are too big to transport across a membrane

A

vesicle

67
Q

what are the 3 types of gated channels

A

chemical, voltage and mechanically

68
Q

what is the difference between chemically gateed and voltage

A

chemical needs a neurotransmitter to bind to the receptor to activate vs voltage which opens when membrane potential changes (too much +ve)

69
Q

what are the 2 types of changes that change the membrane potential

A

Graded(short distance) and action(long distance)

70
Q

what are the 2 types of refractory periods

A

absolute and relative

71
Q

what are teh 4 stages of action potentioa

A
