Brownian movement
|
random motion due to kinetic energy
|
|
passive transport def.
|
the movement of particles across a membrane by diffusion
|
|
passive transport requires
|
no energy
|
|
passive transport...movement due to
|
Brownian movement
|
|
facilitated diffusion def.
|
Molecules moving across a membrane from high to low concentration with help
|
|
facilitated diffusion requires
|
no energy, carrier molecule
|
|
facilitated diffusion... movement due to?
|
carrier molecule, brownian movement
|
|
Active transport def.
|
molecules go from high to low or low to high.
|
|
Active transport requires
|
Energy - provided by ATP - requires a carrier molecule.
|
|
Active transport...movement due to?
|
a carrier molecule
|
|
What happens when you over fertilize plant?
|
Plant loses water (plasmolyzes) because fertilizer creates a hypertonic solution. loses turgor pressure
|
|
What happens when you over water a plant?
|
plant gains water because it's in a hypotonic solution and becomes turgid.
|
|
Factors affecting membrane permeability
|
solubility, poisons, types of molecules (whether picked up by receptors), pressure, size of molecules vs. pores (channels), temperature, concentration, pH
|
|
What happens to a cell in terms of rate of osmosis as sugar concentration changes?
|
As sugar concentation rises, rate increases.
|
|
What are the bulk transport methods?
|
Contractile Vacuole, Endocytosis, Exocytosis
|
|
Types of Endocytosis
|
phagocytosis, pinocytosis, receptor-mediated endocytosis
|
|
Contractile Vacuole...how it works.
|
excrete excess water... the rate of contraction will change depending on the tonicity.
|
|
phagocytosis
|
cell-eating
|
|
pinocytosis
|
cell-drinking
|
|
receptor-mediatedd endocytosis
|
receptor sites allow certain molecules to hook in and cause the membrane to fold in around them, forming a vacuole.
|
|
Exocytosis
|
reverse of pinocytosis...release of waste by merging a vacuole with the membrane.
|
|
Isotonic: solute concentration outside is ________ to the inside of the cell. diffusion will be ______, therefore there is _________
|
Isotonic: solute concentration outside is equal to the inside of the cell. diffusion will be equal in both directions, therefore there is no net diffusion
|
|
Hypertonic: Solute concentration outside is _____ than the inside of the cell. Diffusion of water will be _______, therefore the cell will ______. If animal, it will ______ and ____. If plant it _______ and it can recover because _____________.
|
Hypertonic: Solute concentration outside is higher than the inside of the cell. Diffusion of water will be out of cell, therefore the cell will shrink. If animal, it will crenate and die. If plant it plasmolyzes and it can recover because the cell wall keeps its shape... tonoplast shrinks.
|
|
Hypotonic: Solute concentration outside is _______ than the inside of the cell. diffusion of water will be _______, therefore the cell will ______. If animal, it ______ and it will ____. If blood cell it will ________. If plant it becomes _______ and it can recover because _________.
|
Hypotonic: Solute concentration outside is lower than the inside of the cell. diffusion of water will be into the cell, therefore the cell will swell. If animal, it lyses (bursts) and it will die. If blood cell it will hemolysis. If plant it becomes turgid and it can recover because the cell wall is rigid and prevents bursting (but membrand can become eventually damaged).
|
|
Diffusion
|
molecules go from high to low concentration.
|
|
concentration gradient
|
the difference in concentration of molecules on either side of a membrane
|
|
high concentration gradient =
|
a fast rate.
|
|
Test for starch
|
at lugol's iodine (yellow) to solution. positive if it turns black or purple.
|
|
Test for sugar (glucose)
|
Add benedict's (blue) to solution and heat. positive if it changes from blue - green - yellow - orange - brown.
|
|
Test for protein
|
Add Biuret's (royal blue) to solution. positive if it turns from royal blue to purple.
|
|
homeostasis
|
regulation with the semi-permeable membrane
|
|
Energy
|
active transport with ATP. Brownian motion with kinetic energy.
|
|
Unity within Diversity
|
-transport methods all transport things, but get transported different ways.
-all cell membranes transport, but different transport proteins. -all high to low, but some low to high. |
|

|
refers to the solute concentration comparing the outside solution to the inside of a cell.
|
|
solute
|
solid
|
|
solvent
|
liquid
