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.
