Q

Movement through protein channels

A

Water, ions, and small water-soluble molecules

19
Q

Movement using other proteins

A

Large molecules

20
Q

Water and solutes diffuse freely in:

A

ECF

21
Q

Osmolarity
aka
Osmotic concentration

A

Total solute concentration of the solution

22
Q

Tonicity

A

Effect of the solution on cell volume

23
Q

Tonicity depends on:

A

Solution’s osmotic concentration and permeability of solutes

24
Q

3 types of tonicity

A

Isotonic
Hypotonic
Hypertonic
*extracellular compared to cytosol

25
Q

What matters to tonicity

A

of particles, not solute type

26
Q

Solutions that have different osmotic concentration create a situation for:

A

Osmosis

27
Q

Isotonic

A

No osmotic flow, no osmotic flow

RBC: stay same

28
Q

Hypotonic

A

Causes osmotic flow into cell, cells swell and lyse/burst

RBC: hemolysis

29
Q

Hypertonic

A

Causes osmotic flow out of cell, cells shrink

RBC: shrinks, crenation

30
Q

Water chases

A

Solutes

31
Q

Osmosis

A

Diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane
Higher to lower concentration
Passive

32
Q

0.9% Normal saline

A

Isotonic solution

33
Q

Carrier-mediated transport

A

Protein helping

Hydrophilic or large molecules transported across cell membrane by carrier proteins

34
Q

3 types of carrier-mediated transport

A
  1. Facilitated diffusion
  2. Active transport
  3. Secondary active transport
35
Q

Facilitated diffusion

A

Passive, no ATP

36
Q

Active transport

A

Requires ATP, K pump

37
Q

Secondary active transport

A

Indirectly requires ATP

38
Q

Active transport

Part II, pump

A

Leakage
Always pumping
ATP being used
3 sodium out

39
Q

Movement of a substance in secondary active transport

A

Depend on expending ATP in another process

40
Q

3 types of endocytosis

A
  1. Receptor-mediated endocytosis
  2. Pinocytosis
  3. Phagocytosis
41
Q

Receptor-mediated endocytosis

A

Ligand binds receptor

Membrane invaginates, forms vesicle, and receptor-ligand complex is internalized

42
Q

Pinocytosis

A

Cell drinking

Vesicles form at membrane, taking in ECF

43
Q

Phagocytosis

A

*white blood cell membrane surrounds bacteria forming vesicle that is internalized. Contents are digested

44
Q

Exocytosis

A

Vesicular transport out of the cell

Ex: hormones, sweat, waste
