Membrane Structure and Function

Semester 1 Vocab...yet again!

AB
Fluid mosaic modelproteins floating is a sea of fat
integral proteins=extend all the way or partially through the cell membrane
peripheral proteins=proteins that lie outside the lipid bilayer
carbohydrates attatch to lipids and act as...sitesrecognition of other cells
contact inhibition is...the ability to stop dividing
carbohydrates attatch to proteins and act to...recognize forigen substances
passive transport...high to low concentration
active transport...low to high concentration
active transport is powered by...energy made by the mitochondria
diffusion is...net movement of ions or molecules from high to low
osmosis=movement of h20 from higher to lower water potential
isotonic=relative concentrations on either side of a membrane are equal
hypotonic=environment has lower concentration of solute than on the inside
hypertonic=environmental conditions have a higher conc. of solute than on the inside
plasmolysis=when a cell loses water and loses turgor pressure
dialysis=diffusion of solutes accross a selectively permeable membrane
facilitated diffusion=movement of selected molecules is speeded up by transport proteins
permeases=transport proteins
ATP is used in..movenment against the concentration gradient
phagocytosis=cell eating
pinocytosis=cell drinking
receptor mediated endocytosis=receptor sites trigger intake of a specific substance
exocytosis=release of a waste product
