25
Solutions have the same solute and water concentrations as cells and cause no visible changes in the cell
Isotonic solutions
26
Solutions that contains more solute than the the cells do and the cells will begin to shrink
Hypertonic solutions
27
Solutions that contains fewer solutes (more water) then the cells do Cells will plump
Hypotonic solutions
28
It is a type of diffusion that transports lipids-insoluble and large substances
Facilitated diffusion
29
_______ is transported via facilitated diffusion
Glucose
30
In facilitated diffusion ______ is used to act as carriers
Protein membrane channels / protein molecules
31
A type of passive process where water and salutes are forced through a membrane by fluid or hydrostatic pressure
Filtration
32
In filtration pressure gradient must exist that pushes salute containing fluid from a _________ area to ____________ area
High-pressure area to a lower pressure area
33
Filtration is critical for the ______ to work properly
Kidneys
34
ATP is used to move substances across a membrane
Active processes
35
Active processes are used when:
1) substances are too large to travel through membrane channels 2) membrane may lack special proteins carriers 3) substances may not be lipid-soluble 4) substances may have to move against a concentration gradient
36
Two types of transport, in active processes
1) Active transport 2) Vesicular transport
37
- ATP energizes solute pumps - in most cases substances are moved against concentrations (or electrical) gradient
Active transport
38
In active transport, amino acids, some sugars and ions are transported by protein carriers known as______
Solute pumps
39
Example of active transport
Sodium – potassium pump
40
Sodium-potassium pump is necessary for ____________
Nerve impulses
41
Is transported out of the cell
Sodium
42
Is transported into the cell
Potassium
43
In this transport, substances are move across the membrane “in bulk” without actually crossing the plasma membrane
Vesicular transport
44
Two types of vesicular transport
1) exocytosis 2) endocytosis
45
Two types of endocytosis
1) phagocytosis 2) pinocytosis
46
Mechanism cells used to actively secrete, hormones, mucus, and other products
Exocytosis
47
Material is carried in a membranous sac called ____________ that migrates and combines with plasma membrane
Exocytosis
48
The contents of vesicles are emptied to the outside
Exocytosis
49
Exocytosis docking process
1) docking proteins in the vesicles recognize plasma membrane proteins and bind with them 2) membranes corkscrew, and fuse together
50
Extra cellular substances are enclosed in a membrane vesicles
Endocytosis
51
Vesicles detach from the plasma membrane and moves into the cell And once in the cell , the vesicle typically fuses with a ____________
1) Endocytosis 2) Lysosome
52
Endocytosis contains are digested by ____________
Lysosomal enzymes
53
In some pieces, the vesicle released by Exocytosis on the opposite side of the cell
Endocytosis
54
Types of endocytosis that is known as “ cell eating”
Phagocytosis
55
____________ are cytoplasmic extension that separate substances (such as bacteria or dead body cells) from external environment
Pseudopods
56
Is a protective mechanism not a means of getting nutrients
Phagocytosis
57
Types of endocytosis that is considered “ cell drinking”
Pinocytosis
58
- cell “ gulps” droplets of extra cellular fluid containing dissolved, protein or fats - Plasma membrane forms a pit and edges fuse around droplet of fluid - routine activity for most cells, such as those involved in absorption (small intestine)
Pinocytosis
59
Another type of endocytosis
Receptor – mediated endocytosis
60
Method for taking up specific target molecules and it’s receptor proteins on the membrane surface bind only certain substances
Receptor – mediated endocytosis
61
Highly selective process of taking in substances such as enzymes, some hormones, cholesterol, and iron
Receptor – meditated endocytosis
