Cell Membrane |
Lipid bi-layer, and Transmembrane Proteins (ion-channes, and aquaporins) Selectively/Semi-permeable |
|
Transport |
Passive or active |
|
Body Water |
Makes up to 85% of an animals body, ICF VS ECF |
|
Passive Transport |
(diffuses through a medium, doesn't have to be a cell membrane) Diffusion, and Osmosis |
|
Diffusion |
Solute Concentration (High --> Low) EX: Sugars and gases |
|
Osmosis |
The movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane, Solute Concentration (low --> high) |
|
Tonicity States |
Isotonic, hypotonic, hypertonic |
|
Isotonic |
Solution has the same osmotic pressure (0.9% NaCl) water movement in and out similarly |
|
Hypotonic |
Solution has lower osmotic pressure, causes hemolysis |
|
Hypertonic |
Solution has higher osmotic pressure, causes crenation |
|
Iodine |
Indicator of starch- turns deep blue/ dark purple |
|
Dialysis Tubing |
Permeable to glucose not to starch |
