AKA “Plasma Membrane” or “Fluid Mosaic”
Selectively permeable Barrier Protection
Phospholipids (Bilayer) Transport & Receptor Proteins Some Carbohydrates and Cholesterol (fluidity)
2 Types of Transport Active- takes energy (ATP) & Protein -(Against Concentration Gradient) Passive- No ATP needed (Down Concentration Gradient) -Diffusion (facilitated as well w/ protein) - Osmosis- diffusion of water
Exocytosis- active removal of materials from cell (vesicle) Endocytosis- active way to bring materials into cell (vesicle)
Solvent- the liquid (H2O) Solute- the substance being dissolved (Salt or Sugar) Hypotonic- solution is lower concentration of solute Hypertonic-solution is higher concentration of solute Isotonic- concentration is equal
