Cards

Term
cell transport
Definition
movement of materials in and out of the cell
Term
diffusion
Definition
movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration untill equalibrium is reached
Term
plasmolysis
Definition

excessive cell water loss

-results in shrinkage of cells...

in plant cells cell membrane condenses around chloroplasts

 

animal cells and other kingdoms...shrinkage and shriveling

Term
osmosis
Definition
diffusion of water
Term
Factors effecting rate of diffusion
Definition

1. molecular weight (size of molecule)

2.shape of molecule

3.phase of matter (solid, liquid, gas)

4.solubility in water

5. solubility in lipids (fats)

6. electric charge (+ or -)

Term
passive transport
Definition

transport not expending any energy

-no ATPs

 

ex. diffusion

ex. osmosis

 

Term
osmotic pressure
Definition

tugor

water keeps the cell vacuole filled with water... supports cell membrane and keeps cell membrane against non-living cell wall

Term
faciliated diffusion
Definition

example of diffusion

 

when glucose (c6 h12 o6) diffuses through protein channels into the cell

 

doesn't use energy (atps)

Term
active transport
Definition

diffusion requiring energy

low concentration to high concentration...against the normal flow of diffusion

 

could be that cell is expending energy to prevvent diffusion

Term
exocytosis
Definition

"exit-cell-process"

 

when a lysosome digests food in vacuole and brings waste to the membrane...waste is expelled out

Term
endocytosis
Definition

"enter-cell-process"

 

requires energy to enter the cell

Term
pinocytosis
Definition

cell drinking...taking in liquids or really really small solids

 

requires energy

Term
phagocytosis
Definition

cell taking in a solid

 

requires energy

Term
solution
Definition
a homogeneous mixture of varying concentration
Term
solvent
Definition

greater concentration in the solution

dissolves to solute

 

h2o is the universal solvent

Term
solute
Definition

dissolved in a solvent

lesser concentration

 

used in comparing types of solutions

Term
isotomic
Definition
the same...two solutions of the same solute concentration
Term
hypertonic
Definition

a solution that has "more" of a solute than its comparison...greater concentration

 

**hyper-active**

Term
hypotonic
Definition

lesser concentrated solute than its comparison

 

less of the dissolvable thing

 

**hypo-thermia**

Term

break down of phosolipid-bilayer

Definition

phospho-phosphate group (po4)

lipid- fat, oil or wax

bi- two

layer

Term
what is a phospholipid bilayer made of?
Definition

building blocks...

 

glycerol

(c3 h8 o3)

Term
what is a lipid made out of?
Definition
4 blocks of glycerol
Term
phospholipid is made out of...
Definition

head- glycerol (c3 h8 o3)

and one phosphate group (p o4)

 

tail- two fatty acids

Term
phospho
Definition

phosphate group

(p o4)

Term
hydrophilic
Definition

attracted to water

 

heads of phospholipids like water

Term

Do phospholipid bilayers move?

 

why?

Definition

side ways movements because of head's alike charge....likes repel results in side to side movement

 

up and down

Term
what are tails made out of?
Definition
two fatty acids
Term
hydrophobic
Definition

water hater...tails dont attract water, they repel it

 

Term
tails
Definition
two fatty acids uncharged that repel water
Term
proteins on cell membrane
Definition

float or move around between lipids

horozontal fluidity

Term
cholesterol
Definition

animal fat

 

holds the membrane together like glue

Term
transmembranic protiens
Definition

go "across membrane", or go fully across the membrane...form a protein channel

 

ex.permease pore glucose c6 h12 o6

Term
marker proteins
Definition

to the side of the protein channels

mark the channels for incoming substances

help in cell signaling

will recieve incoming molecules

Term
carbohydrates
Definition

chains of sugars

 

markers and receptors involved in cell signaling

Term
DOL
Definition

..division of labor

 

each organelle has a specific function that it has to perform

 

(independence)

Term
COI
Definition

cell organelle interaction

 

organelles have to work together for the orderly functioning of a cell

Term
production of a lysosome
Definition
first, NUCLEUS has DNA codes for enzymes.. but DNA can diffue through nuclear membrane...so NUCLEOLUS HAS mRNA go to ribosomes (protein factories, in this case, enzyme factories) and the ribosomes make all types of specific types of protein..then to the rough ER, which an ID marker is attached...then to the GOLGI BODIES where IDs are used so enzymes can be identified for sorting into their own types...then they are "budded" into membrane surrounded packages with their specific type of enzyme. THEN YOU HAVE A LYSOSOME
Term
OLIOSACCHORIDE
Definition
id marker put on enzymes in the production of lysosomes
Term

glycoprotein

Definition

carbohydrate/oliosacchoride (sugar.glucose)

+

 enzyme (protein)

Term
glycoprotein
Definition

glucose/sugars/CARBOHYDRATE/oliosacchoride

(ID marker)

 

+

enzyme

 

(proteins)
