cell membrane
|
controls what enters and leaves the cell
|
|
phospholipid bilayer
|
what the cell mambrane arranges it's self into, with the phospholipids
|
|
polar heads
|
the phosphlipids have hydrophilic, polar heads that arrange themselves next to eachother to interact with H20.
|
|
Non-polar tails
|
the talis of the phospholipids and hydrophobic and non-polar the do not like water
|
|
selectively permiable membrane
|
allows certain substances to cross through the membrane more easily than others
|
|
equillibrium
|
isotonic substance, when the substances are equally spread out
|
|
diffusion
|
movement of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration
|
|
facilitated diffusion
|
molecules cross the membrane with the help of protein channels (polar, monomers, an ions)
|
|
osmosis
|
the diffusion of water through a selectively permiable membrane
|
|
hypotonic
|
less solute outside the cell than inside
|
|
hypertonic
|
more solute outside the cell than inside the cell
HYPerTONIC |
|
hypotonic
|
less solute outside the cell than inside the cell
hyPOTONic |
|
isotonic
|
equal solute inside and outside of the cell
|
|
active transport
|
requires energy, movign substances from low to high
|
|
endocytosis
|
moving large material into the cell by the menas of membrane infolding
|
|
