transprotein |
protein that spreads across the plasma membrane |
|
integral proteins |
proteins imbedded in plasma membrane ex; transprotein |
|
peripheral proteins |
protein on the outside of the plasma membrane |
|
plasma memrane |
phospholipids |
|
glycolipid |
lipid with attached sugar(inside) |
|
glycoprotein |
sugar with attached protein(inside) |
|
glycocalyx |
-"sugar covering" -glycolpids and glycoproteins |
|
membrane bound organelles |
|
|
cytoskeleton |
holds all membrane bound organelles -protein fibers |
|
extracellular matrix |
protein fibers on the outside of the cell |
|
glycolipid |
erythrocytes have glycoipds(a,b) and if there are none then you have o-neg blood |
|
difusion |
movement of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration until even -no protein, just rolls trough membrane |
|
facilitated diffusion |
using a channel protein to move particles from a high concentration to a low concentration |
|
active transport |
movement of particle from a low concentration to a high concentration -ATP needed |
|
passive transport |
don't need ATP |
|
glycoprotein |
serve as identification tags for both good and bad cells |
|
cell theory |
-basic structural and functional unit life -activity of an orgaism depends on both the individual and combined activities of the cell -cells can only arrive from other cells |
|
3 main arts of a human cell |
plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus |
|
plasma membrane |
the outer boundary of a cell which a its as a semi-permeable membrane |
|
cytoplasm |
intracellular fluid packed with organelles, small structures that perform specific cell functions |
|
nucleus |
-the organelle that controls cellular activities -typically lies near the cells center |
|
extracellular materials |
substances contributing to body mass txt are found outside the cells |
|
body fluids (extracellular fluids) |
-includes interstitial fluid, blood plasma, and cerebrospinal fluid. -these fluids are important transport and dissolving media |
|
cellular secretions |
substances that aid digestion: intestinal & gastric lubricants: saliva, mucus, serous fluids |
|
extracellular matrix |
-most abundant extracellular material -composed of proteins and polysaccharides that create the body's cells glue |
|
membrane lipids |
this lipid bilayer forms the basic "fabric of a membrane" |
|
phospholipids |
each lollipop shaped phospholipid molecule has a polar head that is charged and is hydrophilic, and an uncharged, nonpolar tail that is made of two fatty acid chains and is hydrophobic |
|
glycolipids |
-lipids with attached sugar groups
-found only on the outer plasma membrane surface |
|
cholesterol |
20% of membrane is cholesterol |
|
tight junction |
series of integral protein molecules in the plasma membranes of adjacent cells fuse together, forming and impermeable junction |
|
desmosomes |
serve as anchoring junctions |
