3 Types of Membrane Transport
Simple Diffusion
Active Transport
Facilitated Diffusion
Simple Diffusion
No Energy Required
No membrane protein required
Not specific

Goes with concentration Gradient
Facilitated Diffusion
No Energy Required
Membrane Protein Required
Not specific
Goes with concentration gradient
Active Transport
Energy Required
Membrane Protein Required
Specific
Goes against concentration gradient
Which of the 3 types of membrane transport are passive?
Which are active
Passive = Simple Diffusion
Facilitated diffusion

Active = Active Transport
What are the two types of Endocytosis
Phagocytosis - entering of solids
Pinocytosis - entering of liquids
Hypotonic
High Water; Low solute
Hypertonic
High Solute; Low water
Hypertonic or Hypotonic, which do plant cells prefer?
Hypotonic
Aquaporins
Aquaporins - type of facilitated diffusion
selective water channels found on many cell membranes
Gap Junctions
Direct Contact
animal cells
Local Diffusion
Secretory Cells
i.e. paracrine signals
Endocrine Signaling
Distant target cells
Synaptic Signaling
Neurotransmitters b/w nerve cell and target cell.
Enzymatic Receptor
turns on enzyme
Membrane Bound Receptors
Ligand gated Ion Channels
G-Protein Linked Receptors
Enzymatic Receptor
Tyrosine- Kinase (protein kinase) Receptor
Intracellular Receptors
Gene Regulators
Transcription Factors
When is G-Linked Protein Receptor on?
When it is attached to GTP
What is a Tyrosine (Protein) - Kinase Receptor?
catalyzes the phosphorylation of a target molecule using a phosphate obtained from ATP
What is a Second Messenger?
All of the intermediates that help to further the interaction between receptor and response
Small
Water Soluble
Non-proteins; ions
Non-enzymes
List Second Messengers
cAMP
IP3
DAG
Ca2+
cAMP
cyclic AMP
(because of the ring structure it forms between phosphate and ribose sugar)
turns on protein kinase
Importance of cAMP
relays messages that stimulate breakdown of glycogen into glucose in muscle and liver cells.
Ca 2+
found in large quantities in E.R.
Calmodulin
enzyme that pumps Ca 2+ out of cytosol and into E.R.

on if high [ Ca2+] in cytosol
off if low [Ca2+] in cytosol
IP3 / DAG
second messengers formed from phospholipids when hydrolized by phospholipase
