Lecture 1 (Water - Membrane Barrier) Flashcards
1
Q
Internal Environment
A
- Extracellular Fluid
2
Q
Homeostasis
A
- Maintain, stable ideal conditions in internal environment (ECF)
3
Q
Water Property
A
- Water = Polar: e- not distrib equally
- H bonds between
- Other - Nonpolar = e- dist equally eq
4
Q
Ions
A
- have net e charge
- Four Important
- Na + , Cl-, K+, Ca++
5
Q
Phospholipid Property
A
- Amphipathic
- one side polar other nonpolar
- Miscelles
- Lipoproteins
- Bilayer of cell membrane
6
Q
Cell Membrane
A
- Phospholipid bilayer w/ embedded proteins
- Nonpolar Core/ Outside Polar = Barrier for polar molecule + ion
- Allows nonpolar molecules + small polar by diffusion
