Biology Review

The document discusses different types of transport across cell membranes including passive transport like osmosis and diffusion, active transport like the sodium potassium pump, and bulk transport through exocytosis and endocytosis. It also discusses the differences between hydrophilic and hydrophobic molecules crossing membranes and different types of proteins involved in transport.

Integral proteins go through the entire membrane

Peripheral proteins on go through the hydrophilic part


6 types of active transport
Transport
Enzymic activity
Signal transduction
Hydrophobic (nonpolar) molecules have the same amount of protons and electrons on each
side of the atom and can faze through the lipid bilayer easily while hydrophilic can't go through
the lipid bilayer
Protons are positive
Electrons are negative
Neutrons are neutral

Three types of passive transport


Osmosis- only for water from high to low concentration
Diffusion - anyone small substance from high to low concentration
Facilitated diffusion- you need a transport protein from high to low concentration
Active transport is low to high concentration
Sodium potassium pump- it's like a dead battery and connects to a phosphate group and
creates energy like plugging it in. It releases the sodium and gains a high affinity for potassium
The phosphate group goes away so the protein returns to it's original shape and pushes the
potassium out and the cycle repeats again

Bulk transport
Exocytosis- transport of bulk material out of the cell
Endocytosis- transport of bulk material into the cell
Phagocytosis- cellular eating like humans eating food
Pinocytosis- cellular drinking like a mosquito drinking blood
