Unit 2 lectures 3-5 Bio 181, goes over communication, transportation, signaling, etc for eukaryotic cells & prokaryotic cells

Content preview

Membrane, transport, Cell
Communication
Osmosis
Osmolyte: Solute, compounds affecting osmosis

Hypertonic: water leaves

Isotonic: normal

Hypotonic: water enters cell


Cell membranes & transport
Primary active transport

requires energy, dependent on atp

moves ions across membrane, changing charge

working against gradient

uses channel

secondary active transport

not dependent on atp

dependent on primary, because of the electrochemical gradient created

Depends on electrochemical gradient

Carrier proteins

Uniporter: carries on in one direction

Symoporter: 2 in one direction

Antiporter: 1 in and 1 out (both directions)

Requires energy?

No: uses electrochemical gradient or carrier proteins



Membrane, transport, Cell Communication 1

, Yes: Uses channels or gos against electrochemical gradient




Gastrointestinal tract
Food

Chewed by teeth

ingested by mouth

mixed w saliva

—>Esophegus & stomach




Small intestine

Sodium glucose linked transporter

Brings 2 molecules of sodium and 1 glucose into intestine for digestion

When sodium is too high sodium potassium pump begins working




Part 2
Miscommunication
nothing happens

things happen incorrectly

things happen too much

Worst case= death

can lead to cancer, autoimmunity, diabetes


why do they signal


Membrane, transport, Cell Communication 2
