what are the characteristics of ion selectivity
|
shape and orientation, diameter, and nature of charges lining the channel
|
|
sodium channels have what kind of charges
|
strong negative charges
|
|
potassium channels are lined with what kind of charges
|
weak negative charges
|
|
what is unique about the chloride channel
|
it can be chemically gated or voltage gated
|
|
chloride channels are lined with what kind of charges
|
positive charges
|
|
what is unique about calcium channels
|
they can be used by sodium channels, sodium can also diffuse out both ways.
|
|
ligand
|
chemical gating
|
|
acetylcholine is
|
nonselective for all charged molecules when open
|
|
what kind of gate is acetylcholine receptor
|
chemically gated
|
|
what element usually passes through ungated channels (leak channels)
|
potassium
|
|
facilitated diffusion is important in the transport of what molecules
|
AA and glucose
|
|
does facilitated diffusion require E?
|
no
|
|
does facilitated diffusion go from high [] to low []?
|
yes
|
|
this form of transport is uphill
|
active
|
|
does active transport go from low [] to high []
|
yes
|
|
which forms of transport require carrier molecules
|
active and facilitated diffusion
|
|
which form of transport requires energy
|
active transport
|
|
this is an electrogenic pump
|
sodium/potassium pump
|
|
how is the electrogenic pump generated
|
it pumps out 3 positive Na ions and only takes in 2 positive K ions resulting in a imbalance and therefore creating an electrical charge
|
|
this results from abnormal biosynthesis of hemoglobin
|
porphyrin
|
|
what is puss made of
|
wbc
|
|
what are symptoms of porphyrias
|
receeeding gum line, photosensitivity, and grow hair
|
|
what are the antiinflamatorry compounds
|
endomethasin and chloroquin
|
|
cell self destruction
|
autolysis or necrosis
|
|
digestive system of the cell
|
lysosome
|
|
enzymes released inside causing the cell to swell and start to fragment
|
autolysis/necrosis
|
|
selfish cell death
|
autolysis/necrosis
|
|
interior of cell is spilled out including lysosomal enzymes
|
autolysis/necrosis
|
|
cell shrinks and fragments itself into vesicles each of which is surrounded by the membrane
|
aptosis
|
|
selfless cell death
|
aptosis
|
|
no injury to surrounding cells
|
aptosis
|
|
uptake of solid substances
|
phagocytosis
|
|
uptake of solutions
|
pinocytosis
|
|
process in which antibodies surround the bacterium and give it a positive charge allowing it to enter cell membrane
|
opsonization
|
|
anitibodies that surround bacteria to give it a + charge
|
opsonins
|
|
two names for exocytosis
|
reverse pinocytosis and emiocytosis
|
|
endocytosis and exocytosis require
|
calcium (Ca+ from outside), energy from inside cell, and contractile protein
|
|
composed of phospholipid bilayer
|
plasma membrane (plasmalemma)
|
|
barrier around the cell that only allows lipid soluble substances to enter

only found on one side of plasma membrane (cytoplasmic side)
|
|
give rigidity to membrane
|
cholesterol
|
|
what is the hazy layer on the outside of the cell formed by carbohydrates called
|
glycolax
|
|
this molecule gives the exterior of the cell membrane a negative charge
|
cabohydrates
|
|
what are the functions of carbohydrates
|
autoimmune response, insulin receptor, join cells, gives cell negative charge
