Inorganic ions Mayuran master Flashcards
organic ions
contains carbon
eg.amino acids
inorganic
does contain carbon
phosphate
ion
particle with a positive or negative charge
sodium ions uses
1)neural signalling - conc of K+ and Na+inside and outside the neutron drives an action potential the electrical signal that travels along an axon of a neurone
2)impacts osmosis important for regulating fluid in cells tissues ad blood
3)co transport - move substances across a membrane using facilloatated diffusion and a na+ concentration gradient
facilitate diffusuon
1)ions actively pumped out na+
2)sodium ion concentration decreases
3)glucose disguises out of lumen in small intestine and
calcium Ions
1)helps with the release of insulin and ny other hormones and neurotransmitters
2)responsible for nerve impulses along synapses and neuromuscular functions
3)co factor for several proteins- used to hold proteins tertiary structure
4)middle lamellae in plants
5)bones
what is a co factor
-non protein group
potassium ions
-nerve impulses
-fluid retention
-help muscle contraction
-photosynthesis
hydrogen ions
-ph (acid)for digestion -gastric juics
-used in chromosomes ,many in mitochondria to generate asp-respiration
NH4+- ammonium
-plants use tomato nitrates used to make amino acids/proteins
anions -NO3-
key for plants to make proteins
absorbed through roots
cl-
-cofactor in enzymes
-sending inhibitors nerve impulses
-maintaoins ph in blood after
po43-
-phospholipid bilayer
included in cell membrane and
atp /dna/rna
oh-
bases make solutions alkali
