Question | Answer |
---|---|
Phospholipid Bilayer | Outer layer of a cell, semi permeable, Has Cholesterol and Proteins embedded in it. |
Integral Membrane Proteins | Embedded in the membrane (“strawberries” in jello) |
Peripheral Membrane Protein | On top of the membrane (“marshmallows” in jello) |
Cholesterol | Gives mechanical strength to the membrane, maintains fluidity, is in the membrane with OH group sticking out |
Selectively permeable | Only certain molecules can pass through membrane |
Diffusion | When a solute moves from higher to lower concentration, down the concentration gradient, no energy input |
Osmosis | When water moves from high concentration to low concentration of water, no energy input needed |
Concentration | Amount of solute dissolved in a certain volume |
Passive Transport | When solute moves down concentration gradient, from high to low, no energy input needed |
Active Transport | When solute moves from low to high concentration of solute, solute moves against concentration gradient, transport protein required for movement of solute, Uses energy (can use ATP, light, ion gradient) |
Direct Active Transport | Primary Active Transport (Low to High), Uses ATP, GTP, NADH, light |
Indirect Active Transport | Secondary Active Transport, 2 part system |
Exocytosis | Moves substances outside cell |
Endocytosis | Moves substances inside of cell |
