Question Answer
substances that move in Oxygen water nutrients
Substances that move out carbon dioxide wastes
hydrophilic -face water environment -water liking
hydrophobic -face each other -water repelling
phospholipid lipid containing phosphate groups
fluid mosaic model of cell membrane - Jonathan singer and garth nicholas in -protein molecules imbedded in lipid bilayer
functions of cell membrane structures: phospholipid Bilayer acts as a barrier to ions
Embedded proteins some help specific substances to cross membrane through protein pore
passive movement expends no energy (diffusion and osmosis)
active movement expends energy
diffusion the movement of substances from a more concentrated to a less concentrated one
osmosis diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane from an area where there is more water to an area where there is less.
concentration gradient the difference in the number of particles compared to the number of particles in another area.
hypertonic (more) more concentrated solution (more molecules outside) (sea water)
isotonic same concentration
hypotonic less concentrated solution (fresh water)
