2 transport process
passive - active
in passive process substances move in & out the plasma membrane w/o use of ____ ____ (ATP)
cellular enzymes (ATP)
passive process example (4)
diffusion - osmosis - facilitated diffusion - filtration
in active process substances move in/out the plasma membrane using
atp
active process example (2)
active transport - bulk/vesicular transport
in passive process what is the tendency of molecules to move from area of greater concentration to area of lower concentration
diffusion
what is the greater the diff in concentration between 2 areas the faster the diffusion
concentration gradient
rate of diffusion can also be affected by (2)
temperature - size of molecule
simple diffusion is when a ____ or ____ ____ particles pass through the plasma membrane
small - lipid soluble
dialysis process is diffusion of ____ through a ____ ____
solutes - semipermeable membrane
dialysis occurs in the
kidneys
osmosis is diffusion of ____ across a ____ ____
liquids - semipermeable membrane
in osmosis, diffusion depends on ____ ____ on both sides
solute concentration
in osmosis water moves from areas that are____ in concentration to ____ areas of concentration
higher - lower
osmolarity is the total concentration of all ____ ____ in a ____ (osmols/liter)
solute particles - solution
what is dynamic equilibrium?
concentration of all molecules is even - movement occurs randomly
osmotic pressure is pressure within the cell that
resists the movement of water into the cell
hydrostatic pressure is pressure caused by ____ in a ____ system and is needed for ____
fluid - closed - filtration
tonicity is the ability of a solution to change
shape of cell
isotonic
equal concentration of water and solutes in/out the cell
hypertonic
more solutes - less water outside cell - shrink
hypotonic
less solutes - more water outside of cell - rupture (lysis)
facilitated diffusion of molecules such as glucose move through membrane by ____ with a ____ protein in plasma membrane
combining - carrier
In facilitated diffusion each molecule type has a ____ carrier protein
specific
Filtration is the process by which water and solutes are forced through a membrane by
fluid or hydrostatic pressure
filtration takes place in the ____ & ____
kidneys - capillaries
in filtration molecules are limited to
size
in active transport, ____ proteins combine with a ____ ____ to be transported
carrier - specific substance
active processes (ATP) are substances that move in the ____ direction of normal diffusion
substances that move the opposite direction of normal diffusion
bulk transport is movement of ____ ____ & ____ across plasma membrane
large particles - macromolecules
bulk transport is driven by energy from ____.
ATP
2 major kinds of bulk transport
exocytosis - endocytosis
exocytosis move substance from cell ____ to ____ space
interior - extracellular
in exocytosis, substance is first enclosed in
membrane sac
in exocytosis, ____ migrate to plasma membrane to ____ and ____ to release contents
vesicles - fuse - rupture
endocytosis
takes in
2 types of endocytosis
pinocytosis - phagocytosis
pinocytosis has to do with
fluid
phagocytosis has to do with
solid
