Capacity to perform work
Energy
First law of thermodynamics
A.) energy can change forms but can't be created/destroyed- energy is always "conserved"
B.) energy in a closed system always remains constant
2nd law of thermodynamics
A.) In a closed system, you can't finish any real physical process with as much useful energy as you had to start with-released as hear etc...
Measure of the disorder in a system
Entropy
A mass of matter that's moving performs work by transferring it's motion to other matter
Kinetic energy
Capacity to perform work that matter processes as a result of it's location or arrangement
Potential energy
Tendency for particles of any kind to spread out spontaneously to regions where they are less concentrated. Requires no work.
Diffusion
Does diffusion require work?
No
Liquid consisting of a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances, consisting of a dissolving agent, the solvent, and a substance, that's dissolved, the solute
Solution
An increase or decrease in the density of a chemical substance in an area.
Concentration gradient
Solutions of equal solute concentration
Isotonic
Solution with a higher concentration of a solute
Hypertonic
Solution with the lower concentra
Hypotonic
Concentration of the solute is the same through the solutions
Equilibrium
Powers nearly all forms of cellular work
ATP
Membrane plasma, exocytosis, endocytosis, requires atp
Active transport
Allows materials to pass in and out of the cell
Membrane plasma
Transport of material out of a cell by means of sac or vesicle
Exocytosis
Phagocytosis and pinicytosis are part of
Endocytosis
Ingestion of smaller cell of fragment, a microorganism, or foreign products
Phagocytosis
Infections of a small liquid into a cell by the budding of small vesicles from the cell membrane
Pinicytosis
Simple diffusion, osmosis, ion channels, no ATP required-down concentration gradient)
Passive transport
When a substance passes through a membrane without the aid of an intermediary
Simple diffusion
Process by which molecules of solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one. This equalizes the concentration on both sides of the membrane
Osmosis
Pore-forming membrane proteins
Ion channels
Carrier protein
Facilitated diffusion
Occurs when a cell bursts due to an osmotic Imbalance that has cause extra water to move into the cell
Cytolysis
Pushes the plasma membrane against the cell wall of a plant, bacteria, and fungi cells as well as those protist cells which have cell walls
Turgor pressure
Process by which cells lose water in a hypotonic solution
Plasmolysos
Enzymes act as what
Catalysts (speed reactions)
EA
Activation energy
EA does...
Enzymes lower activation energy
2 things affect/denaturize enzymes
Heat/temp and PH level
Competitive onhibition
Competing for active site
Non competitive inhibition
Grabs onto active site and it tweaks so it can't fit together anymore
Objects at what temp diffuse fastest
High
Taking in big chunks of food
Endocytosis
Organelle that pumps fast moving in water
Contractive vacuole
Carrier proteins
Used during passive transport
Bulky and going iut
Exocytosis
Osmo regulation
Regulating osmosis
Lowering activation energy (EA)
energy required to get a reaction started
