|
|
Creates a solute binding site.
|
Carrier protein
|
|
Creates an acqueous pore.
|
channel protein
|
|
Requires no energy- channel and carrier
|
Passive
|
|
Requires energy- carrier protein when moving things from low to high conc.
|
active
|
|
Can switch back and forth between conformations
|
carrier proteins
|
|
Concentrations gradients can also be considered...
|
electrochemical gradients
|
|
The three types of transporters
|
Coupled transporter, ATP driven pump, Light driven pump
|
|
Na+/K+ pump
|
sodium goes against its gradient, but K+ is going with its gradient
|
|
Name the steps of the Na+/K+ pump
|
step 1: sodium binding
step 2: burning ATP by phosphorylating the pump step 3: releases sodium into extracellular space to make potassium binding site step 4: potassium binds and dephosphorylates pump step 5: dumps potassium out |
|
uniport
|
move one kind of molecule

|
How do cells maintain homeostasis?
|
the use of pumps
|
|
Osmosis
|
diffusion of water to areas with less water. the water moves to dilute things.
|
|
K+ channel is selective which means what?
|
Only lets K+ through
|
|
How do plants move?
|
Osmotic pressure
|
|
Membrane potential must change to open.
|
voltage gated channel
|
|
Ligands bind to channel and change the conformation to open it

Physcial movement open the channel
|
Mechanically gated channel
|
|
One cell produces the hormone and it travels and hits a receptor of another cell that is specific for that one hormone
|
endocrine
|
|
no bloodstream involved because it is local influence
