Define osmosis and its direction relative to solute concentration.
Osmosis is diffusion of a solvent (e.g., water) across a selectively permeable membrane from low solute concentration (high solvent) to high solute concentration (low solvent).

What types of signals open gated channels and give one example for each?
在这里浏览你的卡片,或 sign up to study with spaced repetition.
Why do some substances require carriers or channels to cross the plasma membrane?
Because they are water-soluble and incompatible with the lipid bilayer, so they need an aqueous path or specific carriers.

What basic role does the plasma membrane play between the cytoplasm and extracellular fluid?

ATP (cellular energy).

What is primary active transport and give an example?
Primary active transport uses ATP to move substances against their concentration gradient; example: the sodium-potassium pump exchanges intracellular Na+ for extracellular K+.

Carrier‑mediated facilitated diffusion - Carriers (integral proteins) bind a specific molecule, change shape, and release it on the other side. - Shows specificity and can saturate when carriers are fully occupied (transport maximum). - Example: glucose transporters move glucose down its concentration gradient.
Channel‑mediated facilitated diffusion - Channels are transmembrane pores that allow passage of ions or small polar molecules via an aqueous path. - Channels are selective for size and charge. - Types: - Leak channels: always open, permit passive flow. - Gated channels: open only with a specific signal: - Ligand‑gated: chemical binds to open. - Mechanically gated: opened by physical force or pressure. - Voltage‑gated: opened by changes in membrane potential.
Endocytosis (into cell) - Vesicles form at the plasma membrane to bring substances inside. - Common forms (high‑level): phagocytosis (large particles), pinocytosis (fluid), receptor‑mediated endocytosis (specific uptake).
Exocytosis (out of cell) - Intracellular vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane and release contents to the extracellular space. - Used to secrete proteins, neurotransmitters, and membrane renewal.
