Q

Rate/speed of diffusion depends on (3)

A

Hypotonic

A

Lesser [] of solute

19
Q

Isotonic

A

Same [] of solute

20
Q

If 2 solutions have same osmolarity = same ?

A

Tonicity (isotonic)

21
Q

Concentration gradient determined by difference in ?

A

TOTAL solute [] (NOT nb of nature if solute)

22
Q

What is tonicity affected by

A

Presence of non penetrating solutes in water and net mvmt of water

23
Q

Tonicity is a description of how

A

Solutions affect a cell’s shape

24
Q

Crenation

A

Cell shrinks (occurs im hypertonic solutions)

25
Q

Hemolysis

A

Cell bursts (in hypotonic solutions)

26
Q

What helps facilitate diffusion

A

Transmembrane proteins

27
Q

Which type of transport brings molecules down their gradient

A

Passive

28
Q

Transmembrane proteins

A

Carrier (specific for one chemical, shale change, sugars, am ac)
channel (mostly ions

29
Q

Water specific channels

A

Aquaporins

30
Q

Can water cross through simple diffusion

A

Yes (bc small) but very slow, facilitated is faster

31
Q

Why can’t sodium diffuse out of cell

A

Bc can’t diffuse from low to high []

32
Q

Mouvement of hydrophilic molecules against their gradient

A

Actuve

33
Q

What does active transport require

A

ATP and carrier protein

34
Q

Primary active transport creates what

A

Gradient which provides energy for secondary active transport

35
Q

How is electrochemical gradient created

A

When primary active transport moves ions

36
Q

Source of energy for secondary transport

A

Electrochemical gradient

37
Q

Popular pump

A

Na+-K+ pump

38
Q

When Na+ ions go outside (after primary transport), when a channel protein opens, they move down their gradient (back into cell) and transport other substances (glucose) that way

A

Secondary active transport (just wanted to explain)

39
Q

Two ways for glucose uptake to take place

A

Facilitated diffusion and secondary active transport

40
Q

Exocytosis

A

Transport of very large molecules OUT of cell (ex insulin out of pancreatic cell)

41
Q

Endocytosis

A

Transport of very large molecules into cell
