Quiz 2- Anna made Flashcards
What is an integral membrane protein
embedded in the plasma membrane go through it fully
What is an peripheral membrane protein
Attached to surface of plasma membrane
Membrane protein: transporters
(channels, pumps, gates) move substances across membrane
Membrane protein: Receptors
respond to neurotransmitters and hormones
Membrane protein: Identity markers
identify “self” to immune cells
Membrane protein: Enzymes
catalyze chemical reactions
Membrane protein: Anchoring sites
secure cytoskeleton to membrane
Membrane protein: Linkers
cell-to-cell attachment
Membrane lipid: Cholesterol
Lipoproteins: Strengthen membrane and stabilize against temperature extremes
Membrane lipid: Glycolipids
Lipids with attached carbohydrate groups: Maintain membrane
name the 3 membrane junctions
Tight junctions, Desmosomes, Gap junctions
Tight junctions
Protein “stitches” anchoring neighboring cells, Prevent substances from passing between cells, Require materials to move through, rather than between cells
Desmosomes
Stronger protein connections that link adjacent cytoskeletons
Gap junctions
Form tiny, fluid-filled tunnels Provide direct passageway for ions to travel between cells
function of the Golgi apparatus
Sorts and packages macromolecules for cell maintenance, repair and transport
function of Proteasomes
to destroy proteins
What is osmosis?
Water going from low solute concentration to high concentration, glucose attracts it like a magnet.
What happens to a cell when it is placed in an Isotonic solution: the amount of water in a cell stays the same?
the amount of water in a cell stays the same
What happens to a cell when it is placed in a Hypotonic solution?
the amount of water in a cell increases, more glucose/solute inside the cell, the cell will burst this is called hemolysis
What happens to a cell when it is placed in a Hypertonic solution?
the amount of water in a cell decreases, more glucose/solute outside the cell, the cell will crinkle up this is called crenation.
when a cell explodes it is called
hemolysis
when a cell crinkles up it is called
crenation
simple diffusion
Molecules move unassisted between phospholipid membrane
facilitated diffusion
Channel-mediated and Carrier-mediated
Primary Active Transport
Membrane protein uses ATP to change shape and carry substance across plasma membrane
Secondary Active Transport
uses the energy stored in these gradients to move other substances against their own gradients
Pinocytosis
cell drinking
phagocytosis
cell eating
exocytosis
Contents of a cell vacuole are released to the exterior
ribosome
protein synthesis
rough er
protein synthesis and packaging
smooth er
Synthesis of carbohydrates, lipids, and steroid hormones
lysosome
sac of digestive enzyme
peroxisome
breaking down toxic materials
Proteasomes
Protein-digesting organelles
