Term
Movement across plasma membrane
Definition
-Diffusion
-Osmosis
-Facilitated transport
-Active transport
-Endo/Exocytosis
Term
Diffusion
Definition
-random movement of molecules from higher to lower concentration
Term
Osmosis
Definition
-the diffusion of water molecules
Term
Facilitated transport
Definition
PASSIVE transport
-materials moved by transport protein NO ENERGY needED
Term
Active transport
Definition
-uses energy to substances against(up) a concentration gradient/partial membrane
-important for kidney to retain substances
-have mitochondria for needed energy
Term
cellular respirations
Definition
the production ATP using glucose and Oxygen
-CO2 and H2O as waste
Term
isotonic solutions
Definition
-concentration of dissolved substances is the same as cell contents
Term
hypertonic solutions
Definition
- solution outside cell is more concentrated
Term
hypotonic solutions
Definition
- solution outside cell is less concentrated
Term
Endocytosis
Definition
ACTIVE TRANSPORT
-process when cell transports molecules (e.g proteins) into cell by engulfing in energy use Process
Term
Exocytosis
Definition
ACTIVE TRANSPORT
-process when cells transport molecules outside of cell by expelling
Term
Protein Production
Definition
Involves
-Nucleus: DNA tolarge to move /copied by RNA to Single strand
-Ribosomes
-Endomembrane System
Term
Ribosomes
Definition
-organelles made up of rRNA & protein
-free floating
-found in endoplasmic reticulum
-used for protein synthesis
Term
Endomembrane system
Definition
-series of membranes where molecules are transported into cells
CONSIST OF
-nuclear envelope
-ROUGH endoplasmic membrane
-Smooth endoplasmic membrane
-Golgi Apparatus
-Lysosomes
-Vesicles
-cytoskeleton
Term
Rough endoplasmic membrane
Definition
has ribosomes to make protein
Term
Smooth endoplasmic membrane
Definition
lacks ribosomes aids in production of lipids and carbs
Term
Golgi Apparatus
Definition
DELIVERY SYSTEM
-flattened stack that process, package, and deliver proteins ans lipids
Term
Lysosomes
Definition
membranous vesicle made by Golgi contains digestive enzymes
Term
Vesicles
Definition
small membranous sacks for transport
Term
cytoskeleton
Definition
series of protein that maintain cell shape
-anchors and/or moves organelles
-found in cilia and flagellum
-Cilia and flagellum made up of microtubiole for movement
Term
Cell junction
Definition
-junctions between human cells that allow funciton in a coordinated matter
3 TYPES
-Adhesion:mechanically attach adjacent cells common in skin
-tight : connections between plasma membrane ,proteins of neighboring cells form zipperlike barrier common in DIGESTIVE tract and KIDNEYS
-Gap:cell communication portals channel proteins of plasma membrane fuse together allowing easy movement between adjunct cells
Term
Enzymes
Definition
-for celluar respirations
-most are proteins
-anmed for molecules worked on called substrates
-have active sites for substrate binding
-recylced
-some need vitamins or ions to be active
Term
Celluar Respiration
Definition
ATP Production
- PROCESS
GLycosis
Citric acid cycle
Electron transport chain
Other Molecules used:
-carbs
-proteins
-lipids
Term
Glycosis
Definition
occurs in cytoplasm
no oxygen needed
breaks down glucose into 2 pyruvic acids
NADH & @ ATP molecules produced
Term
Citirc Acid Cylce
Definition
cyclical pathway in mitochondria
produces NADH and 2 ATP
release CO2
Term
Electron transport chain
Definition
molecules embedded in mitochondria membrane
NADH carry electrons here
32-34 ATP produced depending on cell
Requires Oxgen
Term
APT production w/o Oxygen
Definition
-occur in cytoplasma
-no oxygen needed
involves glycosis
-makes 2 ATP ans lactic acid
