Vacuole, Cell Transport, and Golgi Body Faces Flashcards
it maintains turgor pressure to keep the cell from wilting.
Plant cell’s vacuole
it stores nutrients, ions, and water.
Animal cell’s vacuole
the sites of ATP Synthesis.
Chloroplast and Mitochondria
what is the main function of the endomembrane system?
synthesis and modification of proteins and lipids
is a group of organs that work together to perform certain tasks.
Biological System (Organ System or Body System)
the biological system requires what?
buffers (molecules that donate or accept protons to resist drastic change in PH)
metabolic reactions will not proceed without?
enzymes (are catalysts of biological reactions)
are type of lipids that are biological component of plasma membranes.
Phospholipids
is the type of transport system that requires an energy to move molecules from lower to higher concentration.
Active Transport
this type of transport system does not require energy.
Passive Transport
is the movement of water molecules through plasma membrane from a region of low concetraion to a region of high concentration.
Osmosis
is the passive movement of particles from a region in which they are in higher concentration to regions of lower concentration.
Diffusion
is a process by which substances are transported across cell membranes by means of proteins carrier molecules.
Facilitated Diffusion
is the number of particles per unit volume.
Concentration
what happens to the carrier in facilitated diffusion?
The carrier changes its shape while the channel creates a path.
