Q
  • Proteins may
    have a binding
    site that detects
    external signals
    and transmit
    them into the
    cell to trigger
    responses.

Q

Protein may act
as an enzymes to
catalyze reactions
at the membrane
surface, such as
energy
production.

A

Enzymatic Activity

Q
  • Some glycoproteins
    serve as
    identification tags
    that are specifically
    recognized by other
    cells.

14
Q

Membrane proteins
help cells adhere to
each other or to the
extracellular matrix,
which is essential in
tissue formation.

A

Cell Adhesion or
Intercellular joining

14
Q

Refers to the different ways on how
materials are being transported into and
out of the cell.
* These mechanism is primarily driven by
transport proteins embedded in the cell
membrane, providing a living channel
for molecules to pass through the
phospholipid bilayer.

A

CELL TRANSPORT

14
Q

are substance
that needs to be dissolved,
catalyzed or broken down.

14
Q

substance that
will dissolve the solute.

14
Q

is a
measurement of how the
concentration of solute
changes from one place to
another.

A

CONCENTRATION
GRADIENT

14
refers to the movement of molecules across a membrane that does not require the input of energy. * Molecules move from higher concentration to lower concentration.
Passive transport
14
* Movement of small, nonpolar molecules directly through the lipid bilayer. * Molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration without the need for transport proteins. * Example, oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Simple Diffusion
14
Transport of larger or polar molecules across the membrane through specific carrier or channel proteins. * Examples, glucose and ions.
Facilitated Diffusion
15
* Movement of water molecules through a semipermeable membrane. * Water moves from areas of low solute concentration to areas of high solute concentration.
Osmosis
16
is a type of vesicular transport where the movement of large particles into the cells happens through vesicle formation.
Endocytosis
17
* “Cell-eating” * The cell membrane extends around the material, forming pseudopodia or membrane projections that engulf the particle. The particle is then enclosed in a large vesicle known as a phagosome, which fuses with a lysosome to digest the material.
PHAGOCYTOSIS
18
* “Cell-drinking” * The cell membrane invaginates to form small vesicles filled with extracellular fluid. Unlike phagocytosis, it is non-specific and captures whatever is in the fluid, such as nutrients or small molecules.
PINOCYTOSIS
19
is a type of active transport where cells expel materials from within the cell to the external environment. This process involves vesicles that fuse with the plasma membrane to release their contents outside the cell. Exocytosis is essential for removing waste, secreting hormones, and maintaining the cell membrane. It requires energy (ATP) to transport substances.
Exocytosis
20
the solute is higher outside than the inside of the cell. So, water moves out and the cell will shrink.
hypertonic solution,
21
there is an equal concentration of solute inside and outside of the cell. So, the movement of water stays the same.
isotonic solution,
22
the solute is higher inside than the outside. So, water moves into the cell until it swell and burst.
hypotonic solution,
