Unit 2 Flashcards
fluid mosaic model
cell membrane model that shows the components that influence permeability
permeability
phospholipids, proteins, cholesterol
additional membrane components
phospholipods, steroids, membrane proteins, glycolipids, glycoprotiens, integral protiens, peripheral protien, cholesterol
active transport
requires energy, susbstance moves against concentration gradient (low to high)
passive transport
no energy required, simple diffusion through membrane and ion channels (high to low)
simple diffusion
small nonpolar/uncharged slip through
facilitated diffusion
for ions and large molecules through channel proteins
isotonic
same concentration of solvants and solutes (same osmolatiry)
hypertonic
more dissolved solutes than solution (high osmolarity)
hypotonic
fewer dissolves solutes than solvant (low osmolarity)
