Passive transport
|
Is moved across the cell membrane that does not require energy from the cell
|
|
Concentration gradient
|
Is the described as the amount of cells moving back and forth the cell membrane.
|
|
Equilibrium
|
Is the condition which the concentration of substance is equal throughout space.
|
|
Homeostasis
|
Is when organism adjust internally to changing external conditions.
|
|
Diffusion
|
Is the movement of cells to establish equilibrium
|
|
Active transport
|
Is the movement of substance across the cell membrane that requires energy
|
|
Water is
|
Polar
|
|
Water ALSO
|
Expands whin freezes and is less dense as a solid than as a liquid This is why ice floats
|
|
Diffusion
|
Does not require energy from the cell or any other source It just happens TEMPITURE an increase of tempiture will cause diffusion to happen more quickly. Presure in crease in pressure makes diffusion happen more quickly
|
|
Osmosis
|
The diffusion of water
|
|
Solutions
|
Mixture of two parts: solute & solvent
|
|
Solute
|
The molecules that are dissolved
|
|
Solvent
|
The molecules They are dissolved IN
|
|
Isotonic solution
|
Solution has the same concentration of solute molecules as the cell
Solution remains UNCHANGED |
|
Hypertonic solution
|
Cell looses water and shrinks
|
|
Hypotonic Solution
|
Cell gains water and swells and can even burst
|
|
Facilitated transport
|
Transport proteins help substances move across the membrane diffusion
|
|
Active transport
|
Movement of molecules that REQUIRES ENERGY
|
|
Endocytosis
|
Material engulfed by a portion of the plasma membrane
|
|
Exocytosis
|
Cell expels wastes. Out of
|
|
Photosynthesis
|
Process by which autoraphs convert sunlight to a usable form of energy
|
|
Chloroplast
|
Has in it photosynthesis
|
|
Chemical equation of photosynthesis
|
Light
6CO2+6 H2O --->Co H12 O6+6O2 energy |
|
Calvin cycle
|
Does not require light in order to occur. Products of the light reactions and carbon dioxide are required to produce sugar
|
|
1 glucose iss produced for every
|
6 molecules of co2
|
|
Cellular respiration
|
Process by which glucose molecules are broken down to relese energy
|
|
What does ATP mean
|
Adenosine triphosphate
|
|
Chemical equation of cellular respiration
|
C6 H12 O6+6 O2 ----> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
|
|
The 2 places whare cellular respiration takes place.
|
The main organal is the mitochondria and siteoplasm
|
|
Glycolysis
|
Oxygen is not Required. It occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell and produces a net yield of two NADH two ATP and two pyruvate molecules
|
|
Krebs cycle
|
also called the citric acid cycle because the first reaction forms citric acid. It produces 2 molecules of ATP per molecule of glucose
|
|
Electron transport
|
Process by when energy is transferred from NADH2 to ATP. This process requires oxygen and occurs in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. The electron transport chain generates 32 of the 36 ATP molecules produced from each glucose molecule
|
|
Fermentation
|
Has 2 APT and does not require oxygen and is known as ANAEROBIC.
|
|
Pyruvate
|
Produces at he end of glycolysis is converted into LACTIC ACID. It prevents the kreb's cycle from operating and causes cramping with in the muscles.
|
|
Alcoholic fermentation
|
Some organisms produce alcohol as a result of fermentation instead of lactic acid.
