  • Front
  • Back
a generalized cell contains
Cytoplasm, nucleus, plasma membrane
the plasma membrane is made up of what
phospholipids with hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails
Lipid rafts
outer membrane surface concentraiting platforms for cell signaling molecules
Integral proteins
involved in transport as channels or carriers
Peripheral proteins
motor proteins, support, cell to cell links
Tight junction
fused together, impermeable
Desmosome
mechanical couplings (stitches)
Gap Junction
communication junction (2 straws)
what is the difference between passive membrane transport and active membrane transport
passive does not require atp
Diffusion is moving what substances in what direction
nonpolar and lipid soluble; high to low through lipid bilayer
whats the difference between simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion
simple-substances move directly through the lipid bilayer
facilitated- needs another substance to get through
2 types of facilitated diffusion
and the difference
carrier protein mediated-shows specifity to particular polar substances or classes of substances
channel protein mediated-selective to pore size and AA charges
Osmosis is the diffusion of _____ from ____ to _____
water from low to high
Isotonic
solute is same inside the cell as outside, no change in cell
hypertonic
solute is higher outside of cell, cell shrinks
hypotonic
solute inside of the cell is higher, cell will burst
hydrostatic pressure
blood pressure, pushing solute containing liquid from high pressure to low pressure
2 types of active transport
primary and secondary
Energy for primary active transport comes from where?
hydrolysis of atp
Energy for secondary active transport comes from where?
primary
what is antiport
2 substances moved across in opposite directions
what is symport
2 substances moved across in the same direction
what is vesicular transport
the transport of large molecules across the plasma membrane
what is endocytosis
the type of vesicular transport that allows macromolecules to enter the cell
what is exocytosis
the type of vesicular transport that allows macromolecules to exit the cell
what is pinocytosis
plasma membrane infolds bringing extracellular fluids and solutes
what is phagocytosis
pseudopods engulf solids and bring them in
what is receptor mediated endocytosis
extracellular substances bind to specific receptor proteins allowing membrane to capture molecules
what is the resting membrane potential
inside of cell is more negative than outside, all cells are polar
what 2 ways do cells interact
cell adhesion molecules
membrane receptor roles
what are cell adhesion molecules
sticky glycoproteins that anchor cells to extracellular matrix, signal for white blood cells, stimulate synthesis or degradation
what are membrane receptor roles
integral proteins and glycoproteins that assist in cell recognition through physical touch, chemical and electrical signalling, hormones
what are the three types of ligand
hormones, neurotransmitters, and paracrines
what is the difference between a hormone and a paracrine
paracrines are made locally and stay local
ligands bind to receptor
--->________----> cell proteins are altered
receptor changes shape
ligand binds to receptor--->g-protein_________------->______
activates second messenger
second messenger causes cascade reaction in cell
what are the two most important second messengers
amp and CA+2
cytoplasm where is it and whats it made of
between plasma membrane and nucleus
made of cytosol, cytoplasmic organelles, and inclusions
what are the membraneous cytoplasmic organelles
mitochondria, peroxisomes, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus
what are the nonmembraneous cytoplasmic organelles
cytoskeleton, centriols, ribosomes
what are microfilaments
strands of protein actin

braces/strengthens cells surfaces
what are intermediate filaments
tough insoluble protein fibers
what are microtubules
protein tubulin, hollow tubes

determine shape of cell and organell distribution
motor molecules use
atp
cilia
whiplike
Interphase
growth, synthesis, growth
g1
metabolic activity, vigerous growth
G0
cells permenately cease dividing stay in this phase
g2
enzymes/proteins synthesized and distributed through cell, centrioles have replicated
Mitosis
seperation of replicated dna
cytokinesis
final forming of cell membrane
prophase
chromatin condenses to chromatid
nuclear membrane and nucleoli disappear
metaphase
chromosomes line up in middle
anaphase
centromeres split
telophase
chromatid movement stops
new nuclear membrane is formed
spindle disappears
MRNA
carries recipe from dna in nucleus to ribosomes in cytoplasm
RRNA
structural component
TRNA
carries AA to ribosome to create protein
RNA Polymerase
unwinds DNA template
Receptor
moniters environment and responds to stimuli
Control Center
determines set point at which variable is maintained; coordinates response through efferent pathways
Effector
carries out response directed by control center
