Lesson 1.7 Flashcards
According to this model, membrane consist of lipid by layer and globular Proteins which are in bedded within the lipid bilayer
Fluid mosaic Model by S. Singer and G. nicolson
Has a hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions
Lipid bilayer
Proteins also known as
Glycoproteins
Lipids also known as
Glycolipids
The movement of substances through membranes without using energy
Passive transport
Three kinds of passive transport
Simple diffusion
Osmosis
Facilitated Diffusion
Is the movement of substances from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration
Simple diffusion
Is a difference in concentration of a certain substance in one hour and the concentration in another Adjacent area
Concentration gradient
Factors that affect diffusion across the semi permeable membrane
Size
Charge of particles
Small non-polar molecules That can go in and out freely
H2O, 02, CO2, fatty acid‘s
Large molecules like, cannot go in and out freely
Proteins and carbohydrates
Ios such as, cannot pass through readily because of the presence of hydrophobic region
OH, K+, Ca+++
The diffusion of water across a selectively Premable membrane
Osmosis
Moves down it’s concentration gradient
Water
Three teams that are used to indicate the differences between two solutions
Isotonic, hypertonic and hypotonic
