Fluid Mosaic -
____ - it can move
Fluid
Fluid Mosaic -
____ - it is studded/dotted with things, like a mosaic model.
Mosaic
The ____ model is used to describe the cell membrane.
fluid-mosaic
FM
Stuff can move around in the ____.
lipid bilayer
FM
____ that are on one side or the other or all the way through.
Proteins
FM
____ hanging out on top; ____, these often act as ID markers.
Glycolipid
Glycoprotein
FM
Can ____ this thing apart and see the two ____, and that they are not exactly the same.
peel
layers
The ____ allows the cell to control its inner environment/metabolism, despite what is going on outside.
cell membrane
____ - creates this barrier, within this we have proteins , cholesterol molecules,
Phospholipid bilayer
Every ____ has one saturated and one unsaturated fat.
phospholipid
____ in bilayer - to help stabilize them as the temperature shifts, not so much with us (endotherms) but with many others it acts as a buffer against temperature.
Cholesterol
____ techniques allow scientists to view both sides of the lipid bilayer.
Freeze fracture
Can peel apart the two ____ of the lipid.
Inner and outer leaf differ, contain different proteins.
____ is associated w/ activates taking place inside the cell.
____ is associated w/activities outside of the cell.
Difference is due to their different ____ roles.
leaflets
inner leaf
outer leaf
functional
Phospholipids move ____ in the bilayer and occasionally ____ sides.
Most often they ____ from inside to outside, because they are synthesized inside the cell. This requires an ____ and ____.
laterally
flip
flip
enzyme
energy
Proteins interact with the membrane in multiple ways.
Transmembrane
Peripheral
Lipid anchored
____ - entire protein extends through the lipid bilayer
Transmembrane
____ - protein is associated with membrane, but not part of it.
Peripheral
____ - has a lipid "foot" - a lipid "tail" stabilizes the protein's position on the membrane.
Lipid anchored
Using ____ markers to track movement of proteins in a membrane allows us to document membrane fluidity.
fluorescent
Some membrane proteins are ____ and cannot move freely in the membrane, this is due to the ____.
bound/anchored
cytoskeleton
Permeability of lipid bilayer alone:
High permeability -
CO2, O2
Cells do not need to do anything so we can breathe, almost all concentration gradients - both ways.
Permeability of lipid bilayer alone:
Moderate permeability -
Water
Good so we do not have to work so hard to have the right amount of water on either side of the cell.
Permeability of lipid bilayer alone:
Low permeability -
glucose
It is polar, so it cannot get past the phospholipid bilayer
Permeability of lipid bilayer alone:
Very low permeability -
charged ions, charged polar molecules, large/macro molecules
Inside of the cell is typically ___ milivolts versus the outside.
The outside is more ____, because there is more ____ charged ions on the outside.
-70
positive
positively
____ - charge differential across both sides
Electrical gradient
____ - differential in solute concentration across both sides of a membrane.
Concentration gradient
Gradients drive ____.
movement.
____ - differential in solute concentration across both sides of the membrane.
Transmembrane gradient
____ - charge and chemical differential across both sides of a membrane.
Electrochemical gradient
Important Functions of Ion electrochemical Gradients (Transport Ways) -
BOMNR PT

Transport of ions and molecules
Production of energy intermediates
Regulation of cytosolic pH
Osmotic Regulation
Nerve signaling
Muscle contraction
Bacterial swimming
Two types of Passive transport -
Passive diffusion
Facilitated diffusion
____ - not an energy dependent process
Passive transport
____ - requires energy/ATP to be involved
Active transport
____ - movement down a gradient
Passive diffusion
____ - movement down a gradient with the aid of a transport protein (tunnel). Ex. How you get glucose into the cell.
Facilitated diffusion
____ - directional flow of water across a membrane
Osmosis
____ - same solute on inside and outside
____ - higher outside
____ -low outside/ higher on inside.
Isotonic
Hypertonic
Hypotonic
Plants use ____ to help control water concentration.
central vacuole
____ - water goes to where the solute concentration is highest.
"Salt Sucks"
You have an ____ solution on the inside and outside of the cell.
aqueous (water)
____ - gated channels allow controlled flow of solutes across the membrane. ____ = open, ____ = closed
Facilitated diffusion
Active
Inactive
____ - stays closed until some kind of signal lands on the receptor.
Ligand gate
____ that open chemically.
Chemical gates
____ - open if a charge reaches a maximum or minimum.
Voltage gate
____ - gates that open mechanically, physical pressure stimulates them. Ex. Hair cell in ears get physically blown over.
Mechanical gates
Sometimes ____ are just "holes" and material just flows through them.
If you want to be more specific, solute binds to a ____ that is specific to the specific solute it pops open to the other side, and the solute no longer has a high affinity for that and it pops off.
