|
Active transport
|
Action: Each action will push 3 NA+ out of cytoplasm and into the surrounding environment
2) then will bring 2 K+ from surrounding back into the cell cytoplasm a) 3 Na+ out b) 2 K+ in |
|
Vesicular Transport

1) Exocytosis 2) Endocytosis |
|
Exocytosis
|

Diffusion
|
|
Diffusion
|
Movement of material or energy from greater to lesser concentration.
(Triangle Picture) 1) Highest at source 2) lowest further away |
|

|
|
Carrier molecule
|
Gate or channel to aid the diffusion
This is a protein in form of a tunnel -is a tunnel through the membrane and may a cap to prevent exit or diffusion until the cell requires it -All -cains are sodium channel blockers (NOVOCAIN) |
|
How to always recognize facilitated diffusion
|
1) will always mention a gate or channel
- i.e. Na+ diffusion 2) into a nerve or muscle cell 3) occurs through a Na+ Channel |

Hypertonic
|
means in a comparison this has a greater amount of solute
- 3.5% sea water is hypertonic to the cells - Cell will shrink as water leaves it (CRENATION) |
|
Hypotonic
|
comparison has the lesser amount of solute
-Pure water is hypotonic to cells & Cells will swell and lysis may occur |
|
Isotonic
|
Occurs when a cell is placed in a solution that has the same amount of solute in both materials being compared
isotonic = cell "I SO HAPPY" Equilibrium |
