What is the function of the cell membrane | Controls entry and exit of molecules to cells |
The cell membrane is ____ _____ | Selectively permeable |
Define "selectively permeable" | It will only allow the passage of smaller, soluble molecules through the membrane |
What does the cell membrane consist of? | Proteins phospholipids |
What is A in this diagram | Protein |
What is B in this diagram | Phospholipid |
What is meant by bilayer? | Structure composed of two layers of molecules |
Where in the cell membrane will small molecules like oxygen, co2 and water go through? | Phospholipid bilayer |
Where in the membrane will large molecules like glucose go through? | Channel forming proteins so they can move through the membrane in a pore |
What is the function of other proteins in the cell membrane? | Act as carriers to transport molecules and ions across the membrane |
What is diffusion? | The movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration of the molecule to a region of lower concentration |
What kind of transport is diffusion an example of? | Passive transport |
What is a concentration gradient? | Different between two concentrations |
What substances to cells require | Glucose oxygen |
Why do substances require glucose and oxygen | So they can release energy during aerobic respiration |
What must happen to waste products in cells in order for them to stay alive | They must diffuse out of cells |
What is osmosis? | The movement of water molecules from a region of higher water concentration to a region of lower water concentration |
What type of process is osmosis? | Passive process |
What type of membrane does osmosis take place through | A selectively permeable membrane |
What happens when a soluble substance dissolves in water? | Its molecules spread out into the spaces between the water molecules |
What is a solvent? | A substance that is able to dissolve other substances |
What is a solute? | A substance that is dissolved in the solvent |
What happens when a cell is placed in a substance with a higher salt and lower water concentration compared to the cell | It will become plasmolysed |
What happens when a cell is placed in a substance with a higher water but lower salt concentration compared to the cell? | It will become turgid |
What is active transport | The movement of ions and molecules through the cell membrane from a lower concentration of the ions/molecules to a higher concentration of the ions/molecules |
What does active transport require? | Energy from atp |
What is a gene? | A section of DNA which codes for making a protein to give you a characteristic |
What is DNA? | A double stranded helix held together by complementary base pairs |
What are the four bases that make up the genetic code? | Adenine Guanine Cytosine Thymine |
Name the two base pairs that make up the genetic code | Adenine + Thymine Guanine + Cytosine |
What are proteins made of? | Many subunits called amino acids linked together in long chains by peptide bonds |
What does the sequence of amino acids of a protein determine? | The structure and function of the protein |
What does the DNA base sequence determine? | The amino acid sequence in proteins |
How is mRNA molecule produced? | When genetic code is copied |
