Questão Responda
Simple VS Facilitated Diffusion -Simple - the molecules move directly through the phospholipid bi-layer Facilitated - Molecules pass through transport proteins (large carrier, channel protein)
Factors which alter the rate of diffusion - SA ( ↑ = ↑ R of Diffusion) -Concentration Gradient (↑=↑ rate of diffusion) -Thickness (↓ = ↓distance and ∴ ↑ r of diffusion) -Temperature (↑ = ↑Kinetic energy= ↑ r of diffusion) - Size of molecules (↓ size =↑ r of diffusion)
What is Ficks Law? (Surface Area x Conc GRadient) / Thickness
Definition of Osmosis? Movement of water from a high water potential to an area of low water potential through a particle permeable membrane
What liquid has the highest water potential? Distilled / pure water (0kPa)
What happens if you surround an animal cell with pure water? Swells and burst ( water enters by osmosis)
Why doesn't a plant cell burst when surrounded by pure water? Cell wall prevents it from bursting -made of cellulose and it is turgid

Define Active Transport Movement of Molecules from area of low conc to high con using ATP and carrier proteins -Against conc gradient
Process of Active transport - molecules (in area of low concentration) bind to carrier protein -ATP breaksdown to ADP, Pi and Energy - the Pi and Energy cause the carrier protein to change shape - carrier protein releases molecules on opposite side (in area of high concentration) - the carrier protein releases the attached Pi to return to its original shape
Adaptation of Small Intestine -folded to form Villus (large surface area) -cells lining SI have Microvilli (large surface area) -wall of SI is thin (short diffusion distance) -rich blood supply (maintains concentration gradient) -cells lining SI have transport proteins and mitochondria
What is the process of Active Transport of Glucose in the Small Intestine - sodium ions are actively transported from the cells lining the SI into the blood - lowers the sodium ion concentration in the cell -therefore sodium ions move from the lumen of the SI into the cell -this pulls in glucose via a cotransport protein -therefore glucose builds up in the cell and moves into the blood by diffusion
