“Guard” Controls what comes in & out of the phospholipid bi layer
Cell Membrane
Allows certain things to come through membrane
Differentially permeable, selectively permeable, Semi permeable
Glyco lipids
sugar chains attached to phospholipid
Glyco protein
sugar chain embedded protein
plasma membrane
fluid mosiac model
finger print of the cell
glyco lipids
glyco means
sugar
Examples of passive transport
Diffusion, osmosis (diffusion of water)
Passive transport
No input of energy, High to low concentration gradient
Active transport
Does require energy, Low to high (one gradient)
Example of active transport
Exocytosis and Endocytosis
Exocytosis
Exit the cell by vesicle formation
Endocytosis
In the cell by phagocytosis (cell eating) or pinocytosis (cell drinking)
Solution
Solute + solvent (kool aid) (water)
Isotonic Solution
same strength of solution
Isotonic means (two parts)
Same Strength
once equilibrium is met isotonic solutions have
No net movement
Magic number for Isotonic
.9% tonicity
IV solution and medical saline have
.9% tonicity
Hypo tonic solution have
more solvent; less solute
What happens to the cell in a hypo tonic solution?
cell swells
